Help Seahorse get a new Hobie--Ultimate 12 for sale

 Hi All,
 My wife really wants to get a new Revo 11. To help her get it she'd like to sell a Native Watercraft Ultimate 12. Here is the ad as posted on Craigslist.

Blue Ultimate 12' sit on top kayak http://nativewatercraft.com/boat.cfm?id=5
The boat is in great condition and full price includes the following accessories;
240 cm paddle
Gear Trax mounting system
Gear Trax bottle holder pouch
Hi/Low seat for custom fitting
Bow cover
Stern cover
Fish on pole holder
Cabelas PFD XL
Sea to Summit kayak cart http://www.rei.com/product/814147/sea-to-summit-kayak-cart

These are great boats for flat water lakes and tide water rivers or bays. Very stable ride with tunnel hull design. You can even stand up and fish - they are that stable! New price with accessories would be over $1500-
Lots more storage for all your gear than most SOTs.
Video available on request, also we can arrange for a demo ride if requested.

We are located in Raymond WA. From Seattle take I-5 south through Tacoma. At Olympia take the Aberdeen exit. From Aberdeen take 101 south to Raymond.
From Portland take I-5 north to Centralia, then HWY-6 to Raymond.

  Thanks Brian.

Why a Revo11 over a a Revo13?

Why a Revo11 over a a Revo13?

  That was her personal choice----since changed to an Outback for the extra room and stability. She claims "woman's prerogative to change her mind".

Not to thread jack...I saw a lady with a brand new Hobie Sport loaded INSIDE of her Prius yesterday. The thing fit perfectly inside that car with the passenger side seat forward. I wish I would have taken a picture. It was something you had to see to appreciate.

That's pretty much why I went the Revo 11 route.  The boat has a compact form that doesn't sacrifice mobility and fits the more minimalist approach I've been trying to take lately.  It's easy to load, easy to get to awkward launch sites, and it'll get you where you need to go.  In some ways I'd say it's the ATV of the hobie family.

As long as we're having a "mines bigger than yours contest, " I thought a photo series of a Prius hauling a full-sized Outback might be in order. My friend always transports his Outback on a diagonal, with his bow under the Prius's dashboard on the passenger's side. I think he folds the back seats forward and lays the front right seat, back (almost flat) to get the boat in. He's pretty much rigged up and ready to plunk it the H20 when he slides the boat out.

I hope this works.

Wow, amazing photos Carl! Goes to show how ingenuity can play a big part when we really want to do something! Find a way & make it happen!
Anyway, going back to the subject. I finally decided on the outback first for the stability in the salt primarily as well as the room for fishing gear. I don't fish the salt often but would like to have the option to do so. We both drive trucks so hauling space is not an issue.
I really would like to do ORC this year. Both Mark & my son Catch are all paid up and ready to go. I am selling my horses, truck & trailer as well hoping something will sell in time to make this huge (for me) family event happen. Not only for my immediate family but for our extended NWKA family as well!
Find a way, make it happen!!

Just had another thought, if the kayaks / trailer / horses / ducks / kitchen sink don't sell, I bet you could talk someone into borrowing an Outback/Revo for ORC

Lori, you're going to love your new outback. Great choice. My outback is my very favorite kayak, but I really enjoyed the Revo 13. Please thank your husband for me, for showing Jammer so much AK hospitality  and helping Kardinal to teach him how to fish your AK streams up there.

Catch, I was just up fishing the Willamette (near GR park) with him and we caught several sturgeon. I almost got to fish depot bay with him in May, but the weather turned sour around midnight, so I still haven't got to try the rock fishing off OR's coast. I think he's already offered to loan Kardinal his Outback. But you can probably rent a Hobie for a couple days to prefish the tournament and compete for a nominal fee from Next Adventure. Good luck. I wish I could be there.  Carl

 
   Quick up-date

   We have sold all of our critters and a horse trailer and will be headed down to Next Adventure tomorrow to get Lori a new Outback. Sweeeeeeeet....

    To say she is pumped would be an understatement. This girl is ready.

    Bring it home , add the turbo fins, gear tracks, pole holder, and maybe a fish finder then go out to Firecracker Point in Westport to see if we can baptize her boat with blood. Fish blood that is.

    Just in time to give her a bit of seat time in a new boat. She already has a lot of salt time in kayaks. 

    Then look out ORC---this woman will be on a mission.

Congrats Seahorse! And look at Mark all giddy with excitement. 

So between the three of us... we'll have seven boats?

So who's going to be the first to get an Adventure?   

Congrats Seahorse! And look at Mark all giddy with excitement. 

   Oh HELL YES. She's joining the dark side.
