From the looks I think that may be a 2015 or 2016 model? Or is it new?

BTW suggest that you don't store it with the wheels in as that can cause the hull to warp, especially in hot weather.

Pre glide tech drive, if there is no rudder tension control on the left hand side it's the first year release 2012/13.

until I got my trailer I used to just sit it on the garage floor (albeit with some of those interlocking foam pads underneath; they are great kneesavers for when you need to kneel down next to it).

Nice yak there, I have the 2012 with the raised center hatch, I would like to have the flat deck like yours. You will love the extra space :up:

The PA12 was launched with the Vantage seat and flat deck, so all 12's will have them. The PA14 was revised later to have similar features.
