Hey all! I just recently purchased a Hobie PA which I take in the bay a ton (Alameda Rockwall) I was wondering if anyone has any input on how the PA performs in the ocean. I was thinking of hitting up Pillar Point Harbor when the conditions are well, but wanted to check first anything I should be aware of. Thanks!

might be a bit heavy for the ocean and challenging with surf launches/landings. But my guess is it would be pretty stable once you're out there.

A bit big and slow. But you will be fine in those locations. Beach launch,in the surf.. Not so much.
We have the government, that our forefathers warned us about.

Seems like a lot of the San Diego yellowtail guys fish off PAs. So depending on conditions, might be doable??

Ie. Bring it to La Jolla and go chase some YT!

We have a 14 and 12. They're heavy but stable. Took ours out in the ocean this week and we're fine. An outback would be easier to peddle for sure but probably a bit more wet.

I take my pa14 out for rock fish and salmon. Avoid surf launches and your will be good. It's not a fast boat but its stable! Go get em'!
