Ok. Sounds like you need an outback and a pro angler. That's the compromise. The outback is more versatile for sure. But just go spend a day on the water in a pro angler. They are a little slower. But not much. And if your drive breaks, have some extra parts in hand to fix it. they require basic maintenance and can fail. But it doesn't happen very often. Extra mast, fin, chain set, wrench, vicegrips, pin, ring, and some zip ties and you should be good. Or just find an old v2/v1 driveand keep it with you. It's probably about the same cost as having the parts. Either way your time is valuable, your already on the water might as well be prepared.

Storage Storage Storage. Thats what I love about my PA14. Yes its heavy, its not horrible. In the water it is just as fast and maneuverable as my sons Compass. I just like the fact that everything has a place and I still have plenty of room to fish.
