Second time in LJ 11/2....Success!???

The local Hobie dealer here says something like - There are only two kinds of people: Those that own a Hobie, and those that want to own a Hobie. Total BS but hey, he's trying to sell them.

They're pretty nice, but have their own problems and are overpriced. Try one out, maybe you like it maybe you don't. Paddle/peddle whatever you like, not whatever the cool kids are doing.

The main thing is to get out there and fish!

And what did the local non-Hobie kayak dealer say? I'm sure he said something that would help him make a sale.

You're basing this on what? The fact that you couldn't afford one, refused to spend the money on one or because you'd rather paddle than pedal?

Is a Bugatti Veyron expensive? Of course it is............if you can't afford it.

I agree with you here. I started looking at the PA14 at least 8 months before I finally picked one up but I didn't buy one because all of the cool kids were doing it, I bought it because I could afford it and it was perfect for my style of fishing; long hours, comfortable seating and lots of space.

You guys are funny. Didn't know I started something so fiercely debated. My buddy is pretty hardcore. MINI X, don't care!

his name rhymes with Roby
