I own a beautiful and superbly efficient Hobie Mirage Lynx. In my view, the dream flyfishing kayak. https://www.hobie.com/kayaks/mirage-lynx/ Now, however, that I acquired a Winnebago Revel, https://www.winnebago.com/models/product/motorhomes/camper-van/revel transporting the fabulous Lynx has become impossible. Even the most creative set ups don’t make it possible. So once again it is decision time and the hard decision is to sell it and to replace it with a Hobie Mirage iTrek 11 Inflatable Pedal kayak https://www.hobie.com/kayaks/mirage-itrek-11/#fishing and I just ordered one and will put the Lynx up for sale on Craig’s List tomorrow.
 
I saw one of the Revel's for the first time while bike riding. They are nice...and way expensive...lol.
 
I looked at those Hobie boats....I knew about pedal boats, and kayaks of course, but had never heard of these 'paddle drive' systems.

Very cool...
 
I have a small vehicle so have been thinking about an inflatable kayak for fishing... I'm kind of a klutz at times so am paranoid about puncturing it with a hook... Let me know how it works out! Or are you not going to be fishing from it, and are just getting that configuration?
