Advice on Kayak Purchase

I honestly would recommend looking into a 13 or 15 foot whaler or something like that. I picked this Hobie Powerskiff 15' up for 6g's and its pretty fantastic for the bay.  Like others have said, theres a boat and then theres a kayak. The soloskiff thing seems a little sketchy for the bay area.. Florida is a different environment and climate.

I just can’t see dragging that across the beach or hand carting it up the hill at ocean cove. A motorized kayak is not a boat.

Hand Carting a soloskiff isnt going to work much better honestly. they are heavy!

Yes, that why I never understand the "you should get a boat" comment offered when someone talks about motorized kayaks. A motorized kayak is way to slow to compare to most boats and most boats are way to heavy to compare to a kayak.

IDK. as someone show owned a few of each, my opinion is pretty set. canoes and kayaks are one thing and everything else is pretty much a boat.  soloskiff is a boat

Looks like more people are going the skiff route. I just picked up a Solo Skiff and plan on putting it through the paces.

I agree, boats are too heavy for dragging around by hand. I don't think a kayak should be called a boat because it has a motor on it but I suppose it's up to the individual. Motorized kayak or E kayak  works for me.

What do you guys think of the TrueKit inflatable catamaran? Like the one Rokkit Kit has. Kind if a cool concept. They look badass

I happen to have a TrueKit Discovery, the larger version. I run a 10HP 4 stroke on it. It's great for moving two people and a bunch of spearfishing gear at high speed, which is what I got it for. It can be beach launched with two people, but difficult with one. I do launch it solo at boat ramps though. The downside is a lot of work to setup/teardown. I'm now shopping for a fishing kayak for quicker and simpler fishing by myself.
