Hi everyone. Wanted to see if anyone has any experience with Malibu kayaks. I'm just getting interested in kayak fishing but i'm a big guy( 6'3" 320) so I've been looking at the X-factor. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated and if there are other kayaks out there for a man my size I'd love to hear some suggestions. Thanks

I've been shopping for one for several months now. I've been looking at the x-factor and several others because I'm not a small guy either. The one that has been recommended by three other big guys is the Native Ultimate. It's a hybrid kayak and they say it's the most comfortable seat there is and it's perfect for big guys. Now I'm just saving up to get one.

Gene, are you thinking about the regular ultimate, or the new propel model???

Take a look at the Wildy Commander 14.  Way better boat than the Ultimate.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the input. That seat in the Native Ultimate does look real comfy.

Just the regular one. I'm not afraid of a paddle. lol
