Malibu Stealth


I just bought the new Malibu stealth 14 yak which I researched and water tested about 3 different yaks and the Stealth was far better for fishing in the 10,000 islands in Southwest Fla .The yak is actually 14,4" inches long and 33 inches wide has a casting area with a livewell or dry storage area,I plumbed it with a the livewell kit that Malibu recommends which they sell for $ 109.00 dollars and I picked up the same kit at Wal Mart for $30.00 dollars live works great.I can stand up on the casting platform and turn in any direction to fish,on either side of the livewell are storage areas along with one at a 45 degree angle near the stern and on the front is there gator hatch with a child seat molded into it and at the front is a very large storage area .My fishing rods can be stored with no hassles at all inside the yak.Bought a apex highback seat along with a fiberglass paddle,yak tracks real well with gear and two young kids along this past week.I just installed Malibus X-Wing console on it for my fish finder and it has a battery storage inside the console along with switches for livewell pump amd bow and stern lights for night trips.It will also be used for ocean fishing the wrecks a few miles out from shore during the summer.If you have the money the hole package including the rigging I did was about $1700.oo dollars.Life is good when you are on the water
