I'm thinking about getting a Revo 13, probably used. What are the significant changes (seat, drive, etc.) that have been made to the Revo 13 in the last five years? If you know the model year a change was made, that would be very helpful information.

I have a 2017 Revolution 13 and it has a Vantage seat, 180 drive and is Lowrance ready. Hope that helps.

Thanks Joe! I didn't know those three features were available in 2017.

Does anyone know when the kick-up fins were added?

I have a 2015. It has Vantage seat and is Lowrance ready. I think that was a change from the 2014. It does not have the left hand paddle holder like my 2008 had. The steering and rudder are the same as the 2015 Outback with the up/down handles.

Thanks Duncan! I definitely want the Vantage seat. But I didn't realize it was available as early as 2015.
