Gday all,
Nick from Brisbane, been reading the forum for the past couple of days... and i'm hooked on kayaks aleady! Can't believe I didn't think of this sooner as I always wanted to fish areas off land but didn't want the hassles of owning a boat.
The fun now begins in choosing a kayak for me. If you guys could buy your first yak all over again, what advice would you give a newbie?
Bloody tempting to rush out and get one straight away, but reading several posts it seems I need to choose the one for me. Might make a seperate posts about my needs based on what i've been reading.
Apart from that does anyone know some good shops in Brisbane to look at these beasts in flesh/take them for a test? Even if I had to hire one I wouldn't mind, I've only been in a canoe before which I imagine is quite different.
Cheers
Nick
