Cobra FnD Questions
 

Hi everyone, need some input on FnD's any good thoughts, bad thoughts, problems recommendations, I know it's a slow slug...but I'm looking at total weight capacity ,being a big guy myself.
Also possibly considering the OK Prowler Big Game, just received the 2011 OK catalog and that 'yak only comes in YELLOW....I'm sick of yellow and can't seem to get any call backs or responses from OK in ordering a special color ie. sunrise or orange (Mango)? this will be a future purchase after I get my new knee joint,(hopefully in October)
Thanks for all your tips in advance, they will be sincerely appreciated.....H:sifone:

Why not the Prowler trident 15 (angler)? http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...XEQ6qDJQlxU-tC

I;AM 300 LB AND YES IT SLOW BUT FOR ITS VERY STABLE AND I HAVE CRATE ON THE BACK:farmer:

have a f&d this was my first yak and loved the stability.i bought a xfactor at the malibu factory sale.i got to say it is faster and just as stable i am a big guy at 6/1 300lbs.still have the f&d i use it for a extra

Problem with the FnD is like you said, slug and tank. Unless you're like 400lbs an X-factor would be fine, The OK boat should be fine, also look at the OK Malibu 2XL. Stability is something you can adjust to with a little time, slow will always be slow.

Most people forget to add the weight of their gear and full bait tank into the yak formula...
I see alot of yaks that are overloaded, then add a couple of nice fish. or thresher, ocean chop, and it's quite interesting to see..:eek:
I'll say go with the load ratio other than the preferances of others, all kayaks can catch fish,.. it's just the angler that has the difficulties..:cool:
