GP,
Glad to hear you got a kayak. I hear what you are saying about the 45 degree hatch in the xFactor. It was put in so anglers could slide their rods easily down the hull, but I'm not sure how many anglers actually use it for that. I always thought it moved the tankwell indentations rearward a bit further than they needed to be. Cobra is still going srong with the FnD and theres plenty is use with an excellent factory standing behind them. I had a chance to fish with Sean at Cabrillo one time and I agree that if you need a kayak or accessories, you should look him up. He is one super cool guy that I could recommend to anyone without hesitation.
