I would also always go with the 14 over a 12. That being said, if you have back problems, the compass weighs 50# less than a 14. Just be sure to cinch the straps on the seat back down as hard as you can for the most support on the compass. I've spent a good amount of time on both boats and they're solid choices. I still use my outback a lot though because it's proven itself capable of almost anything from 50+ pound fish to big surf to crazy wind squalls and big chop. I believe the fred hall show in long beach this weekend will have some on the water if you want to try em all.
