What's up folks!?  Just signed on and love the info provided here.  I've been meaning to get a Kayak for a while now and I think I'm ready for 2016.  I've got a few other floaties, float tube & pontoon rig.  I just move from the SF peninsula to the Santa Cruz area and need a kayak!  I hope to gain some more great info and meet some good people.  I'm most likely be joining the Surf Perch Classic this year if I get it together.  Any others here gonna do it?  Thanks again and ohhh boy!

Justin I

Welcome to the madness. I'm sure I'll see you on the water in SC. Safety first...
Are you pondering what I’m pondering?

Welcome! You'll meet good people here. Be sure to ask at any launch site if people are NCKA members, bet you most are. good advice, spots to try diving, even a cold beer if you're lucky. good luck, stay safe! Warren

Oh yea. Figgured i share some thing I dident think of when buying or immediately  there after.
Handling your yak out of the water.
When I bought I knew the weight but had guy help load it in the back  of my work truck. Easy!
Now I'm home it's dark and I'm by myself this is awkward.
Out of the truck musseled down the drive and in the garage no problem not much dragging.
Next day let's try loading it on the 4runner. ........
Well this sucks skate board helps but its awkward and I look like an ass.  Getting it down is just plain sketchy.
So a week later and plans for the maiden voyage I'll just rig it  2x12 a couple of 4x4s a skate truck and some 98mm fly wheels. Got it.
At the launch dropped the skate cart broke the 2x12 Right In half.  Sucks!
Mission acomplished and some rework I think I got the poormans cart figured out!
Until the beach
