Just put a down payment on a folding kayak at a local boat show - the Klepper Aerius expedition (I was shocked that the Klepper rep had never heard of Ralph :-) ). I was planning to get a single, since my girlfriend never expressed the slightest interest in joining me for outings, but as I was filling out the paperwork she got visibly nervous and said well, maybe she would like to join me for outings after all. Oops... The dealer was pleasant and said I could have till 20th March to make up my mind on whether I want a single or a double, and invited me to his shop to check out the different models. I need some advice! There are so many pros and cons to this issue. If I get the double, I'm sure I'll be using it frequently as a single, if I get a single, my girlfriend won't be able to join me for the occasional outing. (At least Ralph says "solo paddling is fine" in the Aerius II). The double is 8 kilos heavier than the single. Any thoughts (especially from couples)?
