anyone ever try the hobie at one with the peddles that operate the "flippers" underneath? I guess the propel you like a whale or porpose tail.
while I haven't tried it yet I met a women on the water with one and she loved it. She said it was one of the fastest and best tracking kayak she had ever paddled. little or no fatigue, loved the peddles. And the rudder "seemed" a lot more useful than most other yaks.
To me, seems it would free up your hands a lot while fishing.
It also has a Sail option, where you can rig it up like a sail boat. Do not expect I would ever take it that far, but you never know, anything that an help you cover water you aren't fishing faster.... but seems like it would get in the way
They are about $1400 though - so for an outfit (PFD, Paddle, rigging) talking near $2000 per system. Me and the girlfriend, talking $4000. Maybe should just go out and get a 16 ft whaler or something..... but that is another whole thread and probably another forum.
