First Yak for my buddy between $450-$500 to Spend!

Looking for a good lightly used yak for a friend. If he doesn't find a decent one hes just going to buy one of those Journey 12 footers at Wal-mart by sun dolphin. Thought i would post on here first and see if anyone has anything! He will be down the end of next week from Oregon. So if your looking to sell one let me know. Thx

I know this is more than the price range you mentioned, but it's such a good deal it might be worth it!  The price also includes shipping!  I got my yak from these guys and am happy with their service.

Also, don't forget to check with the rental places.  They often have good deal on their used yaks.  I think one of the places in Santa Cruz had the same Prowler for $500 used.

Do him a favor and convince him to spend an extra $100 on this:

He'll thank you for years to come. It's a top-of-the-line boat at a bargain price
