Decisions

Hello all. New to the forum. Long time angler but relatively new to yak fishing. Some years back I rigged up a 10 foot paddle yak for local socal lake fishing. I am at a point where I am ready to upgrade and get a yak for offshore fishing for yellowtail, halibut, sheepshead, and rockfish but can still use it in local lakes. Trying to keep the budget around 2k.

I have my eyes on the hobie passport 12. This looks like a pretty versatile vessel, in my budget, and I like the customization factor of it. Anyone have any experience with this hobie in offshore fishing conditions?

I am also looking at the Old Town Salty PDL 120, and the Pelican Catch 130 Hydryve

Any input on these is greatly appreciated.

Also what is everyones input on prop vs fin drives?

Thank you all very much
