Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Last Saturday the area yard sales yielded yours truly a kayak - sort of. Its made by Stearns, about 7' long, and inflatable. Its got a comfy seat and thigh straps .
I like it because when not in use it disappears into a sack AND it only cost me $40. I has a very tiny "keel" so I just sort of sit and spin when paddling, if I don't pay attention. It is cool and has no leaks nor patches and seems in fine condition.
NOW DW wants one. I want to get one that she will be comfortable in, 99% of the time we will be in flat water. But once in a while I'd like to take it into the ocean. Again most of the time she'll be in the "new thing" and I'll tag along in the inflatable. Ideally any new kayak shouldl store easily and be light enough to carry all the way to the beach... 100 yards
