Today I was in San Diego for the celebration of Aqua Adventures' 20th year. Congratulations to Jen Kelck, a great supporter of our kayak community!! Got to paddle around in a Tempest 170 and really liked it. Maneuverable and easy to roll. If I can find one for a good price, I think I'd buy it and sadly sell the ol' Lollygagger. I imagine I'm a bit over the optimum weight for the boat, but what's new!! When I got home, my RPM Max had arrived from Denver and was sitting in my garage. That gives me 5 boats, I almost feel like a real kayaker. My RPM, Delphin and Solstice GTS have only set me back a combined $860, not too bad. I really want a good all around boat though, so liquidation is in order.
