fastest yak?
 

What's the fastest "plastic" yak?
Yaks & peddle boats have come a long way... mirage, twin turbo etc...:cool:

I know the old Cobra Expeditions were fast...but can anyone beat an old Tarpon t160i in a sprint AND/OR distance race??

:D:D

Race from the launch to the corner and back. $10 entry, winner take all. :paddleersmilie:

i'll be in last place behind behind you "youts":D

Long thin yaks tend to be faster. Tarpon 16, OK prowler 15, cobra tourer, and the OK scuppet pro are fast paddling kayaks.

I'd guess the fastest yak in a sprint or a 20 miler would be a Hobie Adventure. You can get that yak up to speed quickly and it doesn't take much to keep it there. Tracks very strait so you don't end up snake waking all over. Mike

Fast yaks don't catch fish, fisherman do!

This picture is from today, get your ass out there.

It's on the interweb, get some!!:biggrinjester:

I raced Bing once, he had a hobbie with turbo fins
had the jump on him at first, but he caught up and passed me

Also couldn't catch AnacapaBobs father in law when coming back from Limekiln, he was in a tarpon I think.

I'm in the 15' prowler

Tarpon
 

That old Tarpon 16 hull was always the fastest fishing type kayak.

Malibu Two with a leaky gazpachi hatch for the win!!!!

Trident/prowler 15

160i hands down. I'm still trying to find another one :farmer:

Nice fish Ken!

Any yak I'm paddling when the tax man cometh.

I cane state for a fact that Charles' 160i reached the horizon faster than any kayak the I have witnessed by n Bahia Gonzaga.

Kenny Bob killed them...He kept some, gave some away, and released some..He was on fire:notworthy:

Shhhhhh!:D

It looked like a tournament out there!

Text me that video warden

I agree

would love to make one out of wood someday

Steveooo and his Revo 16 might be hard to beat

Not quite the same as the 160i, but close. If anyone ever sees a 160i for sale, please let me know.

Aight chris 138, I'm yer huckleberry for a friendly race. Let's do it.
One thing... I'm old, fat, tired & out of shape...:eek:
How about we race for a couple six packs of Ballast Point??
