First kayak suggestion

[Curmudgeon]

twdecock - here is a good deal on TOS. Well regarded 12' boat with a good paddle and rack for $550. Saw this today and thought you might be interested.

Tarpon 120 with paddle

Excellent deal! That's worth jumping on!

x2. My roof rack system itself cost between 300-400 dollars. That is a deal right there. Hmmmmm maybe I should get it :P

Thanks for all the info and help locating a good rig. I'm going to follow up on the tarpon and prowler. Those two seem like my best option.

Just get the kayak that you are comfortable with.

After you acquire a kayak rig - don't forget to come back here and suggest a time/day for a shake down cruise with one of the guys here. We're always learning.

Will do thanks again to all

i would really look into the mainstream kingfish, its a really great all around kayak for the surf and bay, and its nice and light enough to carry easily by yourself. ill even let you borrow mine for a trip, i got a boat now and mine just sits on the wall most of the time, its pretty rough around the edges but it still floats and doesn't leak
