Interested in Ocean Kayaks

How about the Hobies with a mirage drive? I like the idea of hands free mobility. How is it fishing?

PS. It won't be anytime real soon to buy one. And when the time comes I want the best and cheapest for starter kayak. haha[/QUOTE]

go to south winds, in nph. they teach yak fishing, also a lot of info on the safe ways to do things. oh and they have several different types of yaks, so you can see what you like. i bought a pelican it is the best deal for the price.

I can vouch for the Malibu's. I have an X-factor that is super stable, a mini-x that is turning out to be my favorate, it's stable, light and fits in the bed of my truck. A cobra explorer, my first kayak and now my son's. Due to both shoulders having torn rotator cuffs, I'm thinking of selling all and getting a hobie peddle kayak. They are very pricey tho.
