No worries Mike!!!
Getting on in shallow water is no prob, just have the fins bungied and the rudder up, then paddle out a little (pretend its the x-factor) so the fins don't hit bottom (2-3ft deep), then unbungie the fins and go, using the paddle to stear. sometimes i even stall in that 2-3ft zone just staying perpendicular to the waves and wait for a set to pass before haulin thru the.
99.9% of the time LJ is easily do-able using the methods others have described, you probably won't even get wet in the prangler, although I would still never use the rudder in the surf zone....but i guess thats just me??
So what r u waiting for....buy the thing already and lets fish!!!!
