Also for heavier surf can always go with the AI, amas less. For Superior I would go for the PA 14 over the 12. Smaller fresh water lakes, the 12 would suffice. Get the 14, you know you want it.
As far as weight your going to need a trailer regardless with these kayaks, makes life much easier.

P.S. See a dealer down in Wisconsin has it for sale the PA 14 new for $2400 on Craigslist.

yeah I called that Wisconsin dealer the other day. It's an 2012 model and I'm looking for the 2013. Costa eh? I used to live in Turrialba while training for the US freestyle kayak team. Pura Vida!
