Hello fellow yakers!   

I am in the market for a new kayak.  I know I'll need to test-paddle as many as possible to get a feel for 'em.

I want to test paddle an eXtreme and a Marauder XF.  Sean at GWKC (the MAN!) is happy to meet me in the north bay and let me paddle them (thanks, dude!) but I'm hoping for something a little closer than 2-3 hours drive away.

Anybody localish (I'm in Santa Cruz/South Bay area) who is willing to let me paddle their baby for about 15 minutes?  In exchange, I'll let you paddle my uber-stylish Malibu II XL.  No, really.  :smt002

I've got an extreme you can paddle.  I'm down by Monterey so it isn't far from you.  I'd like to get out this Sunday, since my Friday plans were nullified.  Just shoot me a PM and we can set something up.

You have to try one of Sean's X-factors , before buying... A great ocean fishing kayak that has tons and storage and very comfortable and stable.

And of cause !! the Great  GWKC service to boot.

Happy Shopping.

Red,

I have a Marauder XF that I'll be fishing Saturday in Pacific Grove.  You can come fish with us or meet us when we're finished and take it for a spin.
