Re: [Paddlewise] Sit-on-tops

 I use a racing surfski, a sit on top. 19.5 feet long. Learning curve starts
out slow, but you can get so that nearly any bad weather can be fun, and
your friends with touring boats will never be able to keep up with you if
you race them.
And the most important reason, for the surfski, to me, was that I can easily
get off, and then back in, making freediving on it around 2 miles out, very
feasible.
