Hi Neumi, same guy (Hermes), different handle LOL. Just saying...I had a Pescador and at 6'1" with a 31" inseam, I'd bang my bent knees all the time and my foot pegs were all the way out. Not so in my Search (a 13'er). True cockpits are different. I actually found a 10' Redfish had ample leg room for me.

Ya know the only real right answer any of us can give you is demo, demo, demo! There are plenty of people that some people would say are brand snobs, and I mean that in the kindest way possible, it could be said that I fall into that category. Don't get hung up on brand names, find a yak that suits at a minimum 75% of your demands. I bought my first yak at 550, 4 months later I sold it and bought my Jackson big tuna, bc it suited almost all of my demands though before I demoed a Jackson i had only been in heritage and wilderness systems yaks. If the yak you demo and know that it suits you is over budget, wait and save your cash to get what you want. If you settle you will never feel right on the water then it becomes a chore and then you may give it up altogether. Just my $0.02.

Yeah, for some reason I was thinking cockpit length within the same model like my example. I should know better that different the cockpit from a Search 13 is different than the Pescador 12.
