Hi all  -

I'm looking for info re: kayaks.

My sister plans to buy one  but, due to back surgeries,  is unsure she 
could hoist one on her  own.

Has anyone tried the inflatable kayaks?

If so, would you  give me your opinion off-list about the inflatable v. 
standard  kayak.

Thanks!!

Hi,
 
I've tried both types of kayaks. The inflatables are certainly easier to  
move around, but in any kind of wind, they are harder to control. The choice  
will depend on what type of use your sister is planning.
 
Hope this helps,
Lee
