My first yak trip!

always wanted a sit on top. mostly for surfing and such. i'm about 225 feet from the beach.
wife says wont be boating as much this year due to gas prices. i told her i would forgo boating once a week if i could buy a kayak.
something like the cobra revision.


by the way stinko, gay shoes.
 
Sean....I like the color of your tarpon....


CTT...make fun of my shoes all you want, but they rock! After fishing offshore Ill usually have aching feet/calves when I wore my topsiders or sperrys. The first tric I wore with these (not crocs, these are a nother brand that is softer than crocs) I fished through the night for 18 hours straight and not a SINGLE pain the next day.:beer:
 
My mom bought a couple Hobie kayaks that she has up at her cottage on Scituate Harbor. I hate the darn things because you simply cannot go out in them without getting your arse and lower 1/2 of your shirt wet.
 
I think you are right. I checked out Hobie's website, and my Mom has the lanai model, which is a very short (9') yak. Putting my big arse in it is probably overloading the poor little thing.
 
I have been talking to CB and thinking about getting one also!! But the money is not there right now. I will try CB's at some point and see how it is.

And if there is a lot of interest for a yak forum I will make one. But has to be for more then 1 or 2 persons.

My parents have two sit on top and they are not very good for riding waves as they tend to turn side ways with the wave. Not sure if you had one with a rutter if that would help. I have use the kind that you sit down into with that thing which covers the hole and it worked great for riding waves. I'd check around some to see what you need before buying one.
