We’ve finally taken the plunge. We’ve talked about picking up another kayak for quite a while. We’ve flipped through paddling magazines, watched for used boats on the coast, and drooled over the boats in the shops all winter long. We’ve debated getting a cheap kayak for the kids, or getting a better boat for “us” (the grown-ups!) and letting them have our little boat. Today we just did it. We walked into the store for another wistful look at the boats and there was a 13.5 foot boat on sale…quite on sale.
The pretty green one is ours. We pick it up tomorrow. We’ll get to put it in the water in about a month. Kayaking isn’t on the minds of most in February, but we were actually paddling a week and a half ago out on the coast. Winter kayaking….best thing ever (beats shoveling snow!)
Of course when we saw this map, we just had to have it too!
Looks great Deb. It looks like it will stable being a little on the beamy side. Good for you!
We are really excited as now we can take the bigger kids out further and on longer paddles. Eventually we will have to have a fleet. Everyone is completely hooked on the different perspective paddling gives you, and the different things you can see.
Kayaking is amazing. We are fortunate to have many tidal lagoons in our area. Kayaking in them on a warm, calm day – just letting the current carry you – is like the sensation of flying dreams – wonderful.
