 Good attitude Tom, "Buy the activity, not the boat."  Newcomers should 
approach with the attitude that they are buying their first boat, not their 
last.
 Truth be known, most paddlers could get by with a 13-15 foot boat. But, when 
your buddies want to do a twenty mile day and they are all paddling 17-19 
foot boats, do yourself a favor and borrow one.
