I just bought a used 14' Mirrorcraft deep V with new trolling motor, new fish finder, good trailer, life jackets, seats, etc for half the cost of a new Hobie.
That's the disadvantage, IMHO.
I'm not familiar with the Trident, but Ocean Kayak are good boats. Lots of guys I've fished with had them and loved them. Make sure to keep plenty of money aside for the extras. They add up fast.
I second pool noodles. I put some rope through and tie it around the kayak, then just lift, tie it down front back and middle and you're good to go. Works great when we're using something other than my pickup, where it just sticks out the bed.
