These plastic kayaks do indeed provide value in many uses. They are basically water toys--and in the end that is what it is all about. When I look at how much real canoe tripping our 17.5 ft ultra-light kevlar canoe does, compared to paddling across a little lake and back, I think we could have saved a bundle of money.... My kids use our old Perception Dancer (remember when that was a hot ww kayak!) as a toboggan. Two or three teenagers piled on it and it is the fastest thing on the hill.
