Kayaks / What boat (s)?
« on: August 07, 2022, 02:00:09 PM »
Got a wife and a 4 year old. Rented a 3 seater before and it was fun but felt slow and hard to turn and the seat was terrible. I think we can squeeze the kid onto a tandem with us. Primary use would be lakes and some spots in the Delta, possibly on SF bay to bag a halibut or stripers on a calm day. Would not always be the 3 of us, me and the kid would likely be primary users. So it would be nice to have a boat that can be easily solo paddled.
Not set on any brand or model, I figure I can screw some rod holders and my fish finder to pretty much anything. Got next weekend free, we might rent a boat from CCK out in Oakland and see how that goes. Definately going to be renting a few before we commit to buy and open to getting a used boat (or two). Looking to keep cost of boat to about a grand, we dont have any other gear so I figure 500 or so will go to paddles and other gear
