At the end of the day its a lifestyle choice. People who have hobbies that require space need to find a way to get that space. Sometimes they have buddies who lend them room, or a storage unit they pay for. Just like having a home machine shop, or a home wine or beer making hobby, you have to make changes to accommodate it. I would say anyone who is a serious kayaker would likely have made some lifestyle choices to accommodate that. Not saying they can't do it otherwise, but as a 25-year-old person who is currently renting in the bay area, having a driveway for the boat, and a garage to store my kayak gear is literally the #1 requirement when I look for a place to live. Obviously you need an intro to the sport, but after a few trips out, its generally pretty clear whether a passion is there or not. If the passion is strong enough, the lifestyle accommodates.
that said my buddy has been kayaking for about 7 years and his kayak never leaves the roof of his truck unless its to go into the water.
Great points. Thanks for that perspective
