I've been boatless for about 4 years now, and I can't take it. But I don't have the coin (or the free time, honestly) to justify a 23 foot center console. My wife actually suggested that I get a kayak.

I have 2 friends who fish fairly regularly from Niantic, CT to Narragansett, RI. Both of them have the Hobie Outback. I'm lucky enough where I can afford to spend the money on the Hobie. Any reasons NOT do do it? I've never been on a kayak in salt water, and I'm excited.
