I found a search 15 that is like new for 500 with paddle. Has anyone fished from the search 15? Isn't Perception a sister company to Wilderness Systems? Opinions please.

I got to test ride a Search 15 down in Baja early this year. It is a competent fishing 'yak, fairly high performance, Tarpon style deck (yes, both Perception and Wilderness are part of Confluence Watersports). It has more rocker than the WS16 and some refinements to the rigging.

$500 is a great price.

Recently had a paddle break that was a brand owned by Confluence. Contacted them and they pretty much told me a I was Shit outta Luck since they no longer made that Paddle. Lucky for me I bought it at a place that has more integrity than them and agreed to take it back at a loss to them.

$500.00 is a good price,

 They are a bit heavy,  They use a bit more material I guess, But what Pal said is my feeling too.

 West Marine sells them for 1k,  a bit much I think ......... Danglin
