I flipped my ss in the gulf. With the motor, rods and gas tank. Lucky I was able to flip it and save my rods. I was actually going out and a wave 🌊 flipped me. But it was a learning experience.

My buddy flipped his while we were in the gulf. Chop was so bad I couldn’t help him. I picked up all his gear. Took him a while to flip it back over with the motor on it. Scary situation.

3:07 just did that on my brand new solo while underway. Wear your cutoff lanyard for motor. Best thing i did was install hobie H rails on front and left side of center storage/seat. Honestly I still prefer my slayer max for rough water.

im 6'6 200lbs so my ss is pretty top heavy when i stand on it, I cant stand comfortably on my 2017 outback. The only way I can see myself falling out or flipping my fully loaded SS is if i am going full throttle and hit a wave from the side.

after using them a bit, yeah they are cool, only big issue, low weight capacity but i guess the idea is to go light

When I bought my PA360, I never knew about skiffs. I kind of wish I had this instead. What price range is it in when you throw a motor on it?

They are not currently in production, but the owner of the company says he will start production soon.. There is always a couple of used ones for sale. Specially in Fl

Well, when I put a 6hp motor and all my fishing gear with me at 275 pounds it wasn’t that stable especially passing other boats so I bought a Old Town 120 Autopilot for my freshwater needs and a Piranha Raso 14 for my salt fishing. 😊

@@cajunrat13 Good to know. I have a 14 ft aluminum I use and love in North GA, but we have a lot of eletric only lakes and resovores close to me. Of course it's easy to take my motor off and on all the time, but it's getting old. Thinking about getting a kayak, but dont want to get a cheap one and then buy a better one down the road. I would rather spend good money once and add what I want down the road.

Aliex I did see one guy get flipped. He was running from a storm.10hp outboard, and Minnkota i-pilot on his bow. It took a while but, he kept getting hit by side rollers, maybe 2-3ft waves. He should've just pulled off, with all the kayaks. But he tried to be a boat. And it took him a long time to flip it back over. I knew he was going over. But everything was okay, but his outboard ouch..🌊 🛶 💯
