Hey. Was wondering which would be the best choice, the Tarpon 14 or the OK Drifter? I am debating making the drive over to Pensacola Kayak and Sail to see what they have. Does anyone know if they carry the Tarpon? Do they carry a comparable yak to these that anyone would recommend over the Tarpon or the OK? I am having a really difficult time picking a kayak.

The main things I am looking for are stability, fishability, maneuverability and storage. I really like the OK, but one of the concerns I have is the storage. It seems like the Drifter has less storage (not enough room for milk crate, etc). I also heard that the Drifter is a slower yak.

Thanks for anyone's opinion
