Your help is greatly apreciated. Michael Brown >> Michael, The Eclipse is the new, improved version of the venerable Sea Lion, which has well-served thousands of kayakers for many years. It is an excellent kayak, and (assuming it fits your intended use) should work well for you. I've paddled many kayaks and once had a Sea Lion which served as my principle kayak and I like them. Now if you can get it in the glass or Kevlar version, oh my! As to accessories, I'd encourage you to first spend $ on lessons and a really good sea kayaking manual. Happy paddling, Harold So.
