Which boat did you end up choosing? Would be cool to do an NJFishing Kayak Float sometime

I would definitely be up for doing a float sometime, just let me know when!

I was actually looking at NJSquatch's 10' Vibe he was selling but decided go go with a wider kayak because I like to fly fish out of it and wanted more stability.

I got a great deal on Brooklyn Kayak Company's RA220. It is 11.5' long, 34" wide and is super stable. It weighs about 70 lbs and has a max capacity: 450 lbs. The seat is super comfortable and it has a foot controlled rudder which is great.

I called them and was able to get it for $460 including a cheap paddle (which I will replace). I picked it up at a their warehouse in New Brunswick so there was no shipping charge either.

I'm really happy with it so far and can't wait to get out and fish it!
