Saw your X-13 modes..very kool.I am a newbie and have a X-13 on the way.I am mainly going to use it for lake bass fishing.At 250# 6 ft.I have been told it might be too small and unstable.Any opinion? Mike

That same day at San O, before T Man caught a wave, a 250 pound (Land Whale) rode an impressive wave in on my X 13.

The X 13 is plenty stable and will work for you, doing mainly freshwater I assume you won't be adding an extra 100 pounds of bait tank and gear.

I just brought in the 3 gallon bucket tanks as I think keeping the load as light as possible retain the benefits that this kayak offers in ease of paddling.

Thanks for the rave review John.......the price is still the price

Hi Guys
Thanks for the great info on the X13. I plan to order one soon. The one thing that I have been thinking is that the large BLACK hatch would draw a lot of unnecessary heat. I think the first thing I will do is paint it. Was thinking maybe just primer grey. Any thoughts on this?
