I just joined, am shopping for a fishing kayak I can also use for diving and free diving. I'm currently looking at a OK Trident 13 that is about 4 years old but am open to guidance from others.

I live in San Jose. Thanks for letting me join the group.

Welcome!

The trident 13 is a solid kayak, but just about everyone (myself included) will tell you that you should try before you buy. Maybe try CCK in San Carlos.

Welcome Ed!

Plenty of divers on here as well!

The T13 is a great yak for sure!

I think you can see and post in all but one forum already....think it's just the Members only fishing/diving reports that require 10....
