I agree with these other guys, go with the Outback.

There was a posting for a 2019 OB on here asking $3k with Bixby. If it’s still available, that ones a good deal and you could always sell the bixby. Best of luck!

Stability is over rated. They're both pretty heavy and cumbersome, but of the two of get the outback.

I was a die-hard PA14 fan when the 2019 and newer Outback came out with a bigger capacity, I made the switch. It is a good 1/2knot faster than the PA. There is much less space, but it works. The one thing is when a big shark comes cruising, it's a much smaller plastic barrier.
