That looks like Texas Rowing Center. They were nice enough to give me a sit on top with a seat full of water the last time I was there. Got a nice ass cramp from minute one.

The best thing about the sit-on-top kayak is that spiders can't hide inside the boat.

You guys are beginners and want to know about whitewater kayaking? Excuse me? A beginner shouldn't do that! But the only thing I see about paddling one is... nothing. He doesn't even mention that you need one.

This is mistitled - it's about the variance between types of kayaks, nothing about how to paddle

I would not consider a 14',25" wide kayak a touring boat and with proper edging and strokes that "touring" boat can turn faster than the fat ones.

There isn't even a paddle IN SIGHT. How about "looking at different kinds of kayaks"?

That guy is not that knowledgable... saying the rec sit-in won't track because it has the keel... LOL... those things in the midle are tracking channells... that assists in going straight.

So a touring kayak and a sea kayak are the same thing?
