Then the next day or so, get the thing back into the blue water for the next port of call. What I propose to do is to get some training in the (for now) gentle surf, to get my confidence and skill level somewhat better. Is there a way to get those skills safely and applicable to the sea kayaks that I prefer to paddle?? That is: Is there a boat that you all would recommend for training the Beginner/Intermediate paddler??
