Not mine.  What are the thoughts on these as dedicated TC/OC fishing machines? Brother and I are six footers and it will be our first kayaks.  https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/boa/d/hobie-fishing-kayak-pair-with/6335960352.html

Outbacks work great in easy launch spots.  These are older so no new seat.  Those seats hurt my back but if your back is good it may be a good option as they are stable and made for those conditions.

On the other hand, I prefer those older seats - that inflatable lumbar pad helps keep my butt from going numb.

Great price for a pair of Hobie's, plus all that extra gear?  Excellent find.

The boats themselves look like they've got just about every upgrade you'd want, with the rubber mesh pockets, GT drive, etc. The only (minor) thing I can see is that you'd probably want to swap the ST fins (the shorter ones in that last picture) for turbo fins. And with all of those extras, as long as the boats float, it's an awesome deal.
