Does anyone have an opinion on Eddyline kayaks?
https://eddyline.com/products/...t-recreational-kayak

Someone local is selling 2 of these with paddles and vests on a trailer for $2500.

Seems like a good deal but I don't know the brand.

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

“It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free."
-Niccolo Machiavelli

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken

As a life-long canoeist... I know.
But my wife has now had 30 years of training. She really enjoys it and we are *almost* on the same page.

I do enjoy a kayak, but if you're bringing a wife, a dog, a cooler, and other gear the canoe is preferable to me.




"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Eddyline makes nice boats. I've paddled a Sitka before and really liked it.

You need someone willing to be the Indian in a tandem kayak or canoe. You can't have two Chiefs.

That is a smokin deal if the boats are in good shape!

I liked my Wilderness Systems Tarpoon and Old Town Loon when I had hard shell kayaks. Then I lost the ability to haul them around so now I have an Advanced Elements inflatable that is really nice. I also have an inflatable tandem coming, an Aquaglide Navarro 145, that is supposedly very similar to the AE.

Inflatables are great for flatwater if you are limited on storage.
