I wouldn't mind going to that myself. I been looking at Kayak and still unsure of exactly what is best. I loved to find me an old town vapor 12ft used lol finding a good used one that I can afford has been challenging!

Corneliagale, let me know if you are interested in looking over talking about the ride 115, its the one I have and love it, fished everything from lake, 4' swells in the ocean and the james flawlessly. Its a little on the heavier side but its due to its extream robust design. Not to mention its roomy and stable.

MsRockfish the best time to find one used is in the fall and spring time on craigslist. Most sell theirs when the season is over or right before the season starts when they decided they want the latest and greatest or arent going to use it any more.

My son-in-law and I are planning on going out there Sunday and look at the kayaks, really want to check out the 115's been looking at the youtube videos of them and they look very stable, most likely will pick up one this winter. problem is most likely will have to buy two of them so my wife can go with me when we use them. Going to the beach in September and looking at renting a couple down there and using them in the ICW and backwater creeks around Ocean Isle.
