Okay I'm not tuned into the starter market. I've gotten a request from a friend for a kid/car friendly starter boat. The person has easy access to fresh water, and may be able to keep the boat(s) lake side. Does anyone have a suggestion for starter boats - sit on tops are good candidates. The ocean is a 25 minute drive, and they are likely to expand into open water. I expect this to be the usual 1 to 2 hours at a time paddler. He initially asked about a boat with a 31" beam - which just sent shudders of dread through my system.... thanks, Kirk -- Kirk Olsen *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
