re: New to kayaking... Pelican Castaway on sale at Academy

That's a great price. However, that is only because the yak is not so great. If it's something you may do once and never do again or only a few times a year, and you're pressed for cash, then it's not a bad idea. You can get a much better yak for not too much more.
