Ocean Kayak Scrambler XT - Deal or Not?

[Randog]

I am so glad I came here for advice. I think it best that I take my time and do a lot more reading. As I said above, the time I used to save more money will work with the time I need to do my research.

Thank you very much for the insight and taking the time to respond.

Cheers,

Here's an article on choosing a fishing kayak that you may like to read.

I'm sure DGax will post the links to 15 other such articles soon. He's good like that.

Believe me, I know the excitement that comes with the desire to buy a kayak, (I was fiending this time last year myself) but haste can only pay off with a bad decision and I'm glad I did my homework before my purchase. Do your research with comparisons and price shop for the best buy. Be honest about your abilities and expectations. Choose a yak that fits you for your size, shape, usage, etc. If it were me offered that kayak, I'd pass it up... but that's just me.

Good luck,
Andy
