Canoeing/Kayaking

about $300 ish lol

 

Cool. That's about as much as I plan paying for my folding Kayak.

 

I have a kayak! I've never done any serious trips though... usually just down river or in the sound.
It'd be cool to go on a long expedition!
I'd love to get a sea kayak but their so expensive! :S

 

Go to the anglesey sea and surf centre they rent them pretty cheap there i think. Im a level 2 coach but i neve rhave time to go out at the moment, but i wanna get up to level 3 cos a few outdoor centres are after me so i need to get about 50 hours teaching in during summer.

 

Thats cool! I did a star level in kayaking but I never go to the lessons any more. I just enjoy going out on my own! I need a new spraydeck though... mines like 15 years old and leaks!

 

hehe leaky spray deck never a good thing lol.....i can sign off certificates up to 2 star which is funky

 

you can pick up a used one pretty cheep.i paid $1,100.00 for my sea kayak and $400.00 for my river runner.

frog

 

My kayak is old too (but it doesn't leak!). I paid £50 for my kayak, paddle and spraydeck from a friend! Can't get a better bargain!

 

I got my dad to pay for mine....can't get much better than that lol

My claim to kayaking fame was i helped teach Mr Pyrana's son to kayak

 

A few years ago I build my ply Canadian from a kit, plenty of room for camping gear.
But now fancy a lighter sit on top or folder, any recommendations ??

Gymnobuff.

 

Mr Pyrana's son?! I would have thought he was practically born in a kayak! lol!

 

hehe i thought so too, but hes 3 star now so all is good. I have to say i need to do some more kayaking but i never have time at the moment *sigh*

 

We have done some trips out of a 17ft Canoe. Wonderful way to see the world

Our stuff did not get wet. The boat held all the equipment without getting too full or tippy. I suggest calm rivers or a lake.

 

I'd love to go touring with a friend in a '2-man' kayak. But I guess it'd take a lot of planning and none of my friends go kayaking!
