Dear Friends: Now that my Romany Explorer is on its way from Wales, my thoughts are turning to surf kayaks. I love surfing the Romany, but I would like a dedicated kayak for surf. I've looked at a lot of web pages, and it seems that a lot of WW kayaks double as surf kayaks. Are they in fact different? Here in the holy land I think I can get Prijon, Pyranha, and perhaps Mega. Can anyone point to specific models worth investigating? As for skill level, I can surf the Romany Explorer pretty well, but I'm at the "boy, I can surf without capsizing!" stage and do not really maneuver the thing. I've tried a bathtub sit-on-top (JetSurf?) and had trouble getting out through the waves. I basically hated the thing, but I was cold and tired. The seating position killed my tailbone, too. Anyway, I'll go for a closed-deck surf boat.
