Thanks for the info Matt. Did you get you bait tank in the rear or front?

Liqour is up front, the tank is in the rear! Actually a little known fact is that of the kayatank keeping your beer nice and chilly too! just make sure to wash off the bottle before drinking if you have some macks chillin' too!! I don't like the idea of having the tank in the front hatch of the extreme as I kind of reach for bait alot and as I am larger than average young man it is a bit of a pain to do that, also having the tank in the rear hatch allows me to store all my rods relatively easily, including my 8' surface iron stick. If you would like me to post some pics of it please just ask as I didn't paddle out at LJ this morning and have them anyway. Hope this helps you some.

One other quick comment regarding the channels in the bottom, they seem to help the boat track a great deal straighter than the older one and they also seem to help in wind chop especially.

Thanks for the info.

My eX is so old I bought it in Huntingbeach.

My eX's kayatank is a golden beta release

It's also in the rear. The rear is the best option because you can
use the entire yak without interference.
