Hi all,

I'm looking to buy a sit on top kayak. I have a long canal and the river Severn right on my doorstep and fancy having a paddle up and down after seeing various people on them when I was in Torquay last weekend.

I have no idea what I'm buying so was wondering if anyone here has one ?

There are some on ebay that come with seat and paddle for £250 all in such as this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1216651757...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

but looking at kayak stores on the net, they seem to run about £375 plus a paddle on top.

Anyone have any tips or know if the cheaper one will do me ? I only need something basic but don't want to buy it if it's not going to be any good.

cheers,

malty
