New Kayak for a 10year old - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

My nine year old has his own Malibu 9 Mini-X.

Very stable, but kinda slow.

It also can be towed.

Fun for dad to take in and out on high surf days without any gear to practice (have fun).

I have a Scrambler (10 foot) that I bought for me to use in harbors and either of my kids to use to tag along. You are welcome to borrow it to see how they like it.

Malibu mini-X - very stable but not the fastest. I also bring 5/8" poly rope in case the wind kicks up and i need to tow them in

Convict would be a fun place to yak!
