Kia Ora,

Here in New Zealand reputable operators belong to an organization called
SKOANZ.
They will not rent a single kayak by itself  to their customers.You must
be with two people renting two boats, and  most,may  be all  operators
,will insist that the customers watch a Video demonstrating  assisted
re-entree among other things.
Two people can rent a double (Tandem ?) and  a video for self rescue
with that boat is also shown.
Their guides are qualified.PFD's are compulsary by law.
 enjoy life,
Eddie.
