<< I have the advantage of using the same kayak for surfing and touring! I 
see 
 having to have more then one kayak as a point of failure.Even my frequent 
 paddling/suring partners view this as eccentric. 
  
 If you are afraid to take your Sea kayak into the surf you should stay off 
 the ocean! (This is NOT directed at Philip Torrens personally, but is a 
 generalized rant.) >>

   Huh??? I will, and have, surf anything that floats! I will not even 
hesitate to take my touring boat through the surf and surf it if that's what 
I've in at the time. But for the sheer thrill and ultimate challenge of kayak 
surfing I prefer something with a bit more PERFORMANCE! It has nothing 
whatsoever to do with fear! 
   So much for my rant.
