test as many kayaks (malibu, ocean, hobie, cobra, tarpon) as you can before buying. looking for speed (narrow and long kayak) or stability (wide and shorter kayak)? you can do that at rental places. many good deals come and go...so be patience. scored a excellence X-13 with fishfisher and battery and some misc items for a great price (less then 650). cheap kayak storage by the launch...tough one. just some basic tips from someone that just went trough the process a few months ago. search the forum here...ton of great information from experts.
