Addition to Fleet

Post by Flint River Pirate »

I decided that my wife "needed" a kayak. I love my Hobie Outback but I fish a lot of ponds full of lilly pads where the Mirage Drive hangs up and I fish a couple that are tough to get to so I wanted something shorter that I could haul with my Polaris Ranger. I talked to a bunch of folks and did a lot of reading and decided on a Malibu Mini-X and let me tell you, that is one bad little dude! I have had it a couple of days and I really like it.......I mean my wife likes it. :mrgreen: It is 33 1/2 inched wide so it is stable enough for my son and I to pond hop with. Don't get me wrong, it's no Outback but its awsome for a small yak. Malibu puts a lot of thought into their kayaks and I am very impressed with the craftsmanship. I will continue to use my Outback for bigger water but the Mini-X will be our afternoon pond machine.Image

Cool little boat. I have a Redfish 12 for my wife that works much the same way. It's real easy to work with.

Should double as a nice creek boat for the winter.
