You should test drive a Revolution. I had an outback for about 3 years also, and I loved it. Now that I have had a Revo for 2 years, I would never go back to an Outback. The Revo is much faster and almost as stable. The only thing I miss about the Outback is the trays on the side. In the harbors, the outback is great, but if you are fishing open water like Dana Pt, La Jolla, etc.. the Revo is the better boat IMO.
I've never tried the PA, but it's HUGE!! I carry on top of my SUV, and theres no way I could lift one of those up on my roof without help.
Good Luck no matter what Hobie you buy!
