I had a Manta Ray for about 3 year as well and upgraded to the PA! You will never look back! I have had my PA for almost a year and its so much more fun to fish from! I couldn't tell you how many times I was reaching back to get something out of my crate on the MR and tipped her over!!! Not going to happen on the PA. I was out last week and was bass fishing and got turned around and criss-crossed my legs trying to turn back and ended up falling into my seat. The PA never wavered! I on the other hand felt dumb for being so discombobulated!

Enjoy your new boat!

Agreed with what the other Redwolf said, with the PA, you will fall out of it before it flips. The ONLY times I have ever seen PA's actually flip was in heavy surf either trying to get out past the breakers or coming back in to the beach. I have heard SEVERAL reports of people falling out of them tho..... Most recent, an angler from Louisiana lost his balance while trying to photograph his catch for a tournament went swimming out of his PA.
