Cobra Quad. Now What !!!!
 
Hey Guys

I came across Cobra Quad. A Sit on top kayak that could hold 4 Paddler.
When i was looking for a tandem sit on top, I thought Necky Cruiser II ,Cobra
Tandem or Malibu two is big enought. then i saw Cobra Triple. My mind goes wow
this will make a great two paddler fishing platform.
Cobra triple will also make a good flat water family kayak.
But i guess People at Cobra Kayak kick it up a notch too far with Cobra Quad

What do you guys think ?
What's Next? Sit on top Dragon Kayak (as opposed to Dragon boat) :^)

Yeah, I have seen that on Cobra's website (I have a Navigator). Maybe
they were thinking that a family of four might want to kayak in one
boat? Especially if there are young kids in the family, I guess.

That's all I can think of. Personally, I'm not a fan of tandem. I've
tried it and perfer to be the only one trying to get the craft
somewhere. (And try going tandem with somebody who speaks English as
a second language and not quite fully well ... thank goodness I was in
the back so I could compensate!)

Tandem require a whole new set of skill.

My wife love the tandem kayak. Mind you we don't do any extreme kayaking, Just
regular flat water and some protected sea kayaking.
This summer we spent 7 weeks on Vacation in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and
Australia.
In Australia we visited Surfer's Paradise in Gold Coast and decide to take a
sea kayaking tour.
They put both of us in this very long kayak. So long that they could fit a
full size Cooler fill with snack and drink for 7 peoples. Since the Kayak is
so long and have so much space between first and second paddler, Paddle crash
never happen.
So I paddle in front and have the control of rudder, she paddle lazily in the
back.
She just loved it. :^)
Me however are very tired

But we love the tandem . Other couple however called it Divorce kayak for some
reason :^)
