    My wife and I bought Perception Pescadors. Stable and easy to get in and out. Light weight enough that I can load them by myself if I need to. If I had it to do over again I’d get the pro model for the better seat.

    Video showed general pfd rather than ones designed for kayaking. They will be hot and uncomfortable.

    First, I bought an inflatable PVC kayak (Intex Challenger K1), the backrest part of the seat quickly broke in pieces of a few centimeters, but I used it for 4-5 years, and then it got a hole (it will become clear in the summer if the gluing was successful). It also became 1-person with a second canvas exterior and an inflatable hose (Itiwit). It is a little bigger, more stable, and the floor part is solid. Both types had to be turned out and dried every 2-3 days, so that the stagnant water inside would not stink, and the linen would not mold. To avoid this problem, I bought a cheaper SUP, which I mainly use with a kayak paddle. It is more practical to use, because of the aforementioned. Easier portability was important to me.

    Elderly means really old, not being in your 50s or 60s. Also all the „tips“ were very basic information about different kayak types and applicable to every age group.

    You're absolutely right! I try to exercise my ageing muscles daily, but it's difficult to motivate myself. Since installing a swim spa, I'm in the water at least twice a day, just exercising and moving my joints. I don't have any other access to water without the cost (although, if I could afford it I'd be out on the Great Barrier Reef every day), so having a nice big warm bathtub in my backyard is the best thing I can do, even on these chilly mornings.

    I am a fair & easy going kind of guy, (a normal real man)... My one and only issue is the playing of music & loud noises... I agree to NEVER play your music at a "point of interest" area or at a campsite, unless the music is agreed upon my all around... Otherwise, use headphones/earbuds... I can say the same about loud talking & rowdiness as well.... and this is NOT only on the trail, but everywhere, like at a restaurant, on a bus or train, etc.
