Ok what's the longest time you've owned one specific kayak?

Looking through my old posts I found out I've had my OK trident prowler 13 for 5yrs, no wonder I get all sentimental when I think about getting a new one lol had alot of fun in it to! After I get this damn cast off my leg I'm gonna take it out and paddle till my arms fall off lol. Sorry guys random post I know...

I just used my original T-11 (bought in 2011) yesterday. It has one duct tape repair I keep intending to fix properly for the past three or four years. Plenty of scratches and some unique ones since I backed it through the window of my wife's car which I wrote about a couple of weeks ago.

I have had my Tarpon 14 for 13 years.  It has not seen the water in the last 5 years though.

I still own my first yellow kayak (vintage 2003), but since I bought my Hobie in 2013 I haven't touched the yellow submarine.

I got my first rotomoldedbyak around 98, I’ve had prolly 20 yaks since then and almost all were good, now doin 2 completely rigged outbacks, one with a motor to help my 80 yr old legs, I’ve only had a couple of totally bad yaks, but damn near all of them worked for what I boyght them for. Shit take what you like and don’t listen to all the naysayers
