Somewhat like a canoe but powered with a double bladed paddle. I remember one called a Cayman listed on a Site. I asked a couple-worker who's husband owned a kayak rental and guided tour business if he could order me one but nothing came of it. Then they disappeared from the site. Like the idea of them better than the sit on type. At your age and physical ability, you need a Sit On Top kayak. Sit in are hard to enter and exit, and if they turn over you have a good chance of drowning while upside down. A good sit on top, you fall off and swim free unless you have too many leashes on your equipment. You can buy an older Ocean Kayak Malibu for a couple hundred US dollars. I have a Hobie Outback pedal kayak. Which are very stable and the pedals mean I can move along hands free and use my fishing pole. Downside, is my 2009 would still sell for $1100 or so. Brand new is around $2400. Say what? My "age and physical ability"?? Don't confuse me with the old farts in here...I am a young 67 years old and exercise regularly. Whatever y'all pay for those kayaks would be an extra 40 to 50% up here....mostly due to the exchange rate. I ordered an Newsboy Apple style cap from a Californis company on Nov 26. It finally arrived on Dec 14. The $27.45 US cap ended up costing me $59.66 CDN after shipping and the difference between our currencies. Not to worry. After Trump assumes the throne, you will still have a country worth living in...and we won't. Trump going to cut off your welfare check? |
