Make sure you get a color that makes it easy for us to know where you got eaten at.

Yep, yellow for me too. I want to be very visible to anyone else who is on the water and easily spotted frm the air.

Thanks for the input fella's.

I took the advice of the pole and once seen in person, could not resist the sunfire orange/yellow/red swirl.

Joel helped my decission making process over at Aquan and the deal was sealed. 15' Prowler it is.

Pacifico is helping install racks on my truck this week and I should be picking up the yak mid week.

Let the pimping begin!
