i have a stealth 12 i bought at the OEX factory sale and so far i like it a lot. Havent used it a bunch and dont have anything really to compare it with but it seems to paddle pretty well overall. The center hatch bait tank is cool but i feel like you lose a little bit with it. For example the extra easy access storage right in front of you. Granted you dont have to dig behind you to get bait and it allows you to have a milkcrate directly behind you for storage. It seems like it is hard to find a place to put additional rod holders mounted in front of you....like most are saying try a few out and see what fits. I went for the stealth simply because of the sale and i was able to get a brand new kayak for 400. Either way, good luck with what you find and if you ever fish outta Dana Point hit me up and we can help eachother learn.

I had a Tarpon 160 and the Trident 15. Both were great rides. I am on a Revo now and I love it.

Spend some time at OEX paddling or peddling and you will quickly figure out what you like / dislike about each one.
