Yakin I have a Hobie AI and love it. It's set up with all the goodies. I've only fished from it a twice now in SD Bay. It was a lot of fun especially when the wind is kicking up. When there's no wind, it's easy to peddle around. I also have a PA 14. Both are awesome platforms. AI is definitely not a dry ride though.

I am not worried about a dry ride, it keeps you cool on a hot ass day!
How well does it move with the arms out, not using the sail, compared to the PA?

It moves pretty fast with the akas out. I think it's faster than the PA 14.

Halibu77 is definitely dialed in. Before I had to face reality, I was looking at these boats. There's also a video on youtube of some guys taking three AI's to Catalina camping. Fishing, spearfishing, paddle boards and camping gear. They can carry a lot of gear and still sail well. No regrets on the used outback, but I still want an AI.

Here's a few of mine while I was loading up for tomorrow. I'm pretty much done with the set up after a few times out.

I haven't had any issues with the bait tank and the sail. The furling line hangs just above the bait tank. Right now, I do prefer the AI over the PA. At least in San Diego Bay. If it's a slow day, I can always just sail around and relax. Not sure which I would prefer in LJ though. Hopefully I'll find out soon.
