I have never tried kayaking but this looks like a very peaceful way to spend the afternoon, are they very tippy and hard to stay upright in, do you have to spend alot of time with your head under the water before you get the hang of it?

it depends on the boat and your ability balance. A sit-on-top is much more stable than a sit inside type. a wider flatter hull is more stable than a narrow round hull, etc.. with my 2 seaters I can easily stand on them and pitch a lure into the weeds, and while sitting down they are pretty bulletproof. my buddys sit inside whitewater boat on the other hand, is like iceskating on a booger to me. much harder to control and keep upright.

i dis agree . i own a sit inside type and its def more stable as your wieght is closer to the water line. i have tried sit on top ones and they suck and you get all wet. unless your talking freestyle type kayaka and they are tippy as hell. the more tippy the more manuverability. great for playing in waves and rivers

Not just fishing but spearfishing. My kayak is my key to the waters whatever or wherever they may be. Whoever says a sit inside is more stable, i'd like to see you stand on your kayak. I've never seen it done by a sit insider. I could understand stability while paddling, but than my kayak wouldnt be as much fun....

I guess it really depends on what your looking for. Me, I need a SOT...

I think we can all agree on one thing, some of the best times are paddling with nature, smoking on some nature....My favorite is a nice J with some hash oil, can keep me paddling all day...
