RE: Still kicking.
I bought a kayak once but it was a sports version and, like you say MLCM, it was very twitchy. When I wasn't rolling into the water I was generally going around in circles. I only took it on large flat water where it's difficult to judge distances. Not a great experience. I ended up selling it.
I would like to give it another go as soon as my lad is a confident swimmer. This time I'm thinking a big open canoe would be the ticket. Something with room for a my lunch and the banjo.
To you have any experience with the inflatable canoes? I'm guessing, apart from the convenience of an inflatable, that a wooden canoe is the preferred option.
