New yak brand?

I just saw the Angler 144 built by Future Beach. Where they got the 144 I haven't a clue because the yak is 12'X30". The bottom of the hull reminds me of the Native Ultimate but this is a SOT.

These yaks are sold by West Marine. Has anyone tried it yet?

12' X 12" = 144"

West gets $499 for the yak. At 400, it looks like a deal to me.

thats what i said,i look all over internet and couldnt find it for less then 570 but came with paddle. but i got yak a easy rider paddle and pfd at dicks all for less then 500. will be doing some modifications throught out summer but from what ive read from other people and taking it out so far well worth the money.and its actually 100 percent recycled plastic so it a eco-green kayak if ur concerned bout that at all.

I cannot find a single thing about these yaks on the net. I'd like to paddle one before buying. I've bought a "Pig in a poke" more than once.

I was hot to buy a WaveWalk until I paddled one. Honestly, though I probably should have spent more than about 20 minutes in it before writing it off.

I saw one last Sunday at the West store in Savannah. $499.00! $400 sounds better to me.

I was wondering how it would track with the semi tunnel hull. Should be fairly stable.

well the reviews i read was from mostly bigger guys and im only 5'6" and they said they could stand in it and was stable for them,with me very stable and sits high out of water but i only way 150 and capacity is 420lbs.just type in future beach angler reviews and you should find some.

I bought 2 last year and have been telling everyone about them since.
Was in Costco today and they had the 10 ft."Trophy" with rod holders and paddle for $319 and same kayak at Dicks on sale now for $329
