Picked up a Revo 13 today. Gig Harbor watersports had a demo day and I found that I liked the Revo more than the Outback. I also immediately picked up the upgraded fins and rudder, as well as a few gear tracks to mount some of the accessories I already have.

I do have to figure out how I'll do my FF, as well as exactly where I'll put the tracks.

Once I figure out my FF situation, I'll likely be selling my Thresher 140.

Congrats! I've never been on the water in either but I looked at both models at the store yesterday and thought the revo would be my choice as well.  Post of some pics of your rigging once you get it figured out. 
Kayaking without wearing a PFD is like drunk driving.  You can get away with it for a while, but eventually someone dies.

Thanks! I will.

Polyangler suggested I put the battery in the rear hatch, that's where he has it and it makes a lot of sense there. I'm also probably going to put my tracks up just past where the mirage drive will go so that the rods go up front and out of the way for trolling.

I'm also going to get the deeper hatch bucket for the center hatch so that I don't have problems holding a sammich close by. :)

I'll update the thread, or probably move to the rigging forum when I figure out what kind of drilling I'll be doing.
