Well, I know that I probably should have waited until spring, but well... I just got excited and placed the order. So, now, I am the proud owner of a Fenn Mako XT Surfski, which was created in South Africa, traveled by ship to Ocean Paddle Sports Ocean Paddle Sports and then by truck trailer through California, Washington, other points in between, Texas, Louisiana, and then Mississippi. I'll post some pictures later.
This weekend, I got the 3 kayaks off of the carport floor and onto some new racks that I built under the wing of my shed. This week... temperatures are going to be in the TEENS! Can't wait until Spring!
Now, how to get them from home to the Lake? I already have Yakima carriers, but would like to find a way to carry all three at once. Does anyone have any experience with these?
Being a newbie to kayaking, I probably should add some books to my library and spend the cold days/nights preparing for Spring. These look interesting:
I wonder if I could get in the water quicker if I bought a wet suit. Here are some that I am considering. Does anyone have any experience with this style for kayaking? Is XSPAN better?
I may also need gloves. These look interesting, but look like they are more for swimming. Does the wet suit come with feet? Or do I need boots like these?
Boys and their toys, right? Well, it seems safer than road bike riding...
