Hello All!
I am excited to be a part of this community!

Over the past several months I have struggled with which kayak to buy. Typically I am the type to go the inexpensive route, but in this case I've decided to go with a used Hobie (or slayer propel if I can find one) yak and really put my energy into it. Over the next several weeks (or as long as it takes to find one) I will be reading, learning, and shopping for a good deal on a used Revo, outback or PA. If anyone has one that they are looking to sell in order to fund an upgrade I just might be one to buy your old one!

Looking forward to being a part of this awesome community as I have been lurking here for a few months now.

Welcome! You mentioned in another thread that you are located in Garden Home/Tigard area. There are a few of us in that area. Whereabouts? I'm on SW 74th just south of Garden Home Rd.

Welcome, I'm sure you will find a kayak in the classifieds or on Craigslist. Many kayaks have been listed, but have gone fast.

Thanks the welcome!!

I am sure I will find one in good time. I am on a bit of a budget, but I see sold 'yaks on the classifieds for what my budget is... I just need to be patient.
