Thank goodness we don't have a sea kayak industry dedicated to convincing us that last year's perfectly good kayak is completely obsolete and socially unacceptable. A reasonably well maintained 10 year old seakayak is a perfectly fine boat! We do see some of that on the WW side -- but part of that has to do with the fact that the sport has been changing focus. > So, you can buy skis that were $500 10 years ago for $25 at a garage > sale. Why can't I buy a 10 year old kayak for $50?!? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
