Hello all, I have been asked to help come up with some definitions of various types of kayaks for the Great Rivers Marathon (http://www.greatriversmarathon.org), a 26.6 mile race that will be taking place on the Mississippi this coming September. The organizers aren't sure how to categorize the various kayaks and would like a short description and if possible a small picture of that type of boat. I have no idea what the difference between these boats might be so any help would be appreciated. I am also not sure where they are getting these classes from, so maybe there are some better ways of differentiating such as: K1 Racing Kayak, Sea Kayak (over 16'), Recreational Kayak (under 16'). Anyone wanna try 26 miles in a rodeo boat?
