o.uk...
Does anyone have a kids plastic kayak that they wish to sell. I am

looking
for something for a child of around 12 years old. Something like the

Dagger
Blast would be ideal.

Got three Dagger Blasts but by 12 years of age most kids are at their limit
in the Blast ( though at 14st I can still paddle one. Better go for a flat
bottomed boat if you want initial stability. However, the Blast is great for
small kids who can easily paddle them in a straight-ish line :-)

We use Whippits and Whiplashes for 10 years upwards. We put one scared
beginner in a Wavesport Z and when she realised she could stand up in it her
fears vanished. Perhaps more critical than the boat size is the paddle size.
