Tall anglers: What kayaks did you choose?

Malibu stealth would also be no problem, there's plenty of leg room.

That does help. Thank you. Guessing it is better to take a more stable kayak over the speedier Revo?

The PA only concern was self loading ontop of my car. In the store they certainly didn't look light and their width makes me guess not easiest to handle either when lifting?

I still need to look into the Malibu's they don't have any around me.

How is the X factor in terms of letting water in? Know quite a few of you said the stealth does. I expect to get wet (it is kayaking) just don't need to be soaked.

you should also look at the trident 15.


X-factor slow, tank and super stable.

At 5'8" I'm the tallest of my Asian friends. My outback suits me well

Yeah the outback seems like the right call. It is super stable and plenty fast with turbo fins, and I can load it on my Pontiac G6 (small) no problem
