In answer to the kayaks for kids posting, I recommended the "Poco" by
Ocean Kayak. I later went to their site to check some information and
found it missing from their offerings. Diane from Ocean Kayak responded
to my inquiry about the "Poco".
see below:

Rob,
Thank you for your interest in Ocean Kayak's products!  We actually
replaced
the Poco with the Kea, so the answer to your questions is yes, and no.
The
Poco was designed by our French licensee and we noticed a few flaws in
that
design, so re-did it to our own liking.  The Kea is actually lighter
than
the Poco by 5 pounds making it a bit easier for kids to handle.  You can

check the Kea out on our web site.  There still are some Poco's out
there for
sale as well...you can check with the local Austin dealers for that one.

Diane
