Whats the best 2 person kayak for beginners?

Question

I am looking at buying a 2 person kayak. I have tried to research them and do some reviews.. I am looking for one under 800 dollars... and one of the sit on tops or the open kind... (not the type our inclosed) does anyone know what would be the best one to buy... I will be taking it down a few rivers and lakes... I have been looking at the Pelican Pursuit 140T DLX Sit-in Kayak or the Old Town Twin Otter Kayak... are those any good?? or should I look at something else? any ideas?

Answer 1

Tandem kayaking is a difficult sport to master. You and your partner need to try out kayaks. You need to decide if you want to stay dry and warm or risk getting wet and cold. Do you have single kayak experience? River kayaking will involve manuevering and perhaps rolling. Lake kayaking can be quite simple. You may save lots of grief if you take some lessons. Consider buying two one-person kayaks.

Answer 2

if your lookin for a sit on top then you cant really go wrong in terms of stability and all that. just look for whatever fits
