WOW
Posted by: dan4sea on Jun-17-12 11:33 AM (EST)

maybe I missed this suggestion for all the static but here goes. You could try a sit on top tandem as a solo and make sure to find a pfd that will fit you properly and comfortably.

If you are not familiar with kayaking try taking classes with a qualified instructor.

Few things are better than getting out in the sunshine on a pleasant day no matter what your activity choice. If you're not living you're already dead so go for it,
