Hi,
I'm new to kayaking, and ready to buy a boat. I am 5'4" and weigh 135
pounds. I will primarily be paddling on lakes and on the backwaters
of the Mississippi River (sometimes have to cross big main channel to
get there). I would like a boat that I can load on to our Thule roof
rack myself. I am considering the Perception Sundance, Monterey,
Carolina, or Sonoma 13.5, or the Current Designs Breeze. The boat has
to be easy to load/unload, and FUN to paddle. Any input? Thanks from
a newbie! Margaret
