Kayak update

Just found a great site that sells a variety of inflatable kayaks and gives what seem to be very honest appraisals of them:
The Boat People

I'm back to thinking maybe the Sunny, instead of the Helios, might be best for us, but it will come down to how comfortable the seats are, and if we can put Crazy Creek Chairs in, etc.

The demo day at Newport Dunes is this weekend, too. Maybe we'll get a kayak, but I don't think they sell inflatables. It will help us narrow our options, I think.

They (Southwind Kayaks) carry some other brands of inflatable, folding, or hybrid kayaks that look interesting, too:
The Advanced Frame Convertible
Feathercraft Klondike
are two of the ones they carry. Most of what they have are hard kayaks, though. Still, we can try out different designs, seats, etc.
