There is a big difference in price point in all the yaks you just posted and the ascend 12t. The ascend retails at $649. The closest one is the pescador pro at $829 and I'd definitely suggest ponying up the extra $180 but comparing a $1k+ yak to a $649 yak is apples to oranges. At $649, the ascend is a good boat for the price. They upgraded a few things and fixed the biggest fault by raising the hatches.

I have an ascend fs 128t and there is nothing wrong with that boat at all. I've had numerous trips and caught a bunch of fish with it. Now it doesn't hold a candle to the KC I just got but we're back to prices.

Like Last Coco said though, go to as many stores and physically push and prod on as many different makes and models as you can. Some look great in a pic and aren't all they're cracked up to be in person.

Buy a much better used kayak vs getting a new ascend. I got my predator mx new as a "2nds" for $700. Be patient, watch craigslist, bckf and LASportsman for deals. The ascends are fine for what they are, but I always recommend people buy a better kayak used.
