So my wife bought me a kayak for my birthday and after spending the last 3 weeks building and buying things to outfit it (thanks to this forum) I am pretty sure I am ready for the maiden voyage. Since I am new to the kayak game I plan on taking it out on SD bay out of Pepper park/tide lands boat launch tomorrow morning between 7:30-8 am to test everything out and possibly get some lines wet in the process. If anyone has any helpful advice or feels generous enough to show a newbie the ropes it would be greatly appreciated.
