In need of a kayak!!!!?

Question

I live in Orlando, Fl and I am looking to buy a kayak. I prefer an Apex 130T Sit-On-Top Kayak (2 person) but am open to something very similar. I do not have a lot of money and do not want to spend more than $300 max. Can anybody tell me where to find a deal like this?

Answer 1

Try craigslist or kijiji.

Answer 2

Face it, if you are gonna be that specific, get ready to spend full price on something.

Answer 3

I doubt you will find a specific model for that price.  But go to a rental shop and see what they have for out of season / used kayaks.  I couldn't find anything cheaper than $599 at Zellers/JB Sports etc.  Try Costco.  They often sell Pelican Brand recreational boats.

Personally, I would go for a better tandem kayak than the Pelican.  Its a limited kayak.  Its really only good for basic recreational purposes - eg.  really smooth waters/no wind.

But maybe thats what you want.

Check the classified ads in your local paper/put out a wanted ad (Craiglist, Kijijji or Buy Sell and Trade)

Good luck.
