    Kayak verses Canoe

    Kayak preferred I have paddled both and like the kayak better. With the kayak you sit down lower in the water and, I think, that makes you less prone to tipping. Kayaks have two kinds of stability. Usually, the wider they are, the more stable. After you have paddled for a while you might...

    kayak

    I want to buy a kayak. I am small (125 lb, 5'1" tall) and can't lift it onto a car alone but I have a van that will handle a 12' kayak inside. What brands/features would you recommend?

    Looking to buy a new digital camera...any suggestions?

    Could you live in your camper?
