Just wanted to say welcome. I'm new to the yak myself, so won't be much help. I'm absorbing everything I can from the boards here.

Nice ride you bought. Should be pretty exciting on first launch. Make sure you dedicate your first la jolla trip to practicing launching and landing. You should always find a number of yakers in the a.m. that can give you a hand if needed. On practice day, get there early enough to talk to guys who are returning. You can watch their landings and check out their rigs regarding set up etc. After several trips, you will have met a number of guys that are members of this forum and will be able to buddy up in the future. Make sure to pick a super calm day to make your first real fishing trip. That way, you will build your confidence and make a positive trip. Hope this helps. Have fun and catch lots of fish.
