    Some interesting Kayaks. I have the Old Town 106 and I love it. Probably a little small for saltwater (the 120 Salty would be better for that but it breaks the 2500 barrier) I weight 240 lb and am 6 ' 3"" The 106 fits me perfectly with added gear. That new roto-mold Hobie does look nice (I liked the reinforced scupper holes for a cart) . From experience, absolutely do not buy a PDL without a break way system . The Old Town has it and it works. Don't ask me how I know. Even with the breakaway hitting submerged log is a hard hit. Don't have to worry about that with the finn drives. Although the PDL 106 paddles fine with the drive ups there are a couple of lakes I fish with large amounts of standing timber (they didn't finish logging the reservoir before they flooded it. They cut the trees in the rest of during the winter ice-in at the ice level. . So it's an underwater forest now). Navarre Fishing out of Florida makes a plug which fits the hole and keeps the yak drier particularly in choppy water.
    PS. I like your straightforward enthusiastic presentations.

    A lot of people are complaining that it doesnt get there or having problem with shipping. when u complain and want to review to let people know about the experience they don't post bad reviews. So people have to 5 star and post the real review. I want to get an old town but too much money for me to get scammed

    I really question the Vanhunks capacity. That’s an awfully light kayak to be boasting that kind of weight rating. My favorite on this list is the Big Fish 108. An absolute unit of a kayak. Nice breakdown my guy!🤘🏼 thanks for the shoutout 🎉

      Yeah I may have to put it to the test I have an elite pro angler and absolutely love it. I'm 200 lb and I had 70 lb worth of gear last weekend doing a 20-mile Brazos River camping trip and the hull floated it perfectly didn't even feel the weight. The vanhunks elite pro angler is a great kayak, and I'm coming from a feel free Dorado. It's fast stable and has a great turning radius
