Hello, first post

[Sebastes]

Black Jack,
It is hard to paddle, but I don't know if it is because it is my first kayak.
Perry,
I do plan to power it, but I am on such a tight budget and currently going through a legal custody battle. I found a nice looking one in BPS for $100 and was thinking of getting that one.
Water Rat,
I'm having a hard time picturing the collapsable extension arm, got a pic or drawing? I don't know if it would require a fishing platform, on the video Perry posted, the guy looked comfortable standing (thanks for the vid Perry). One thing I noticed from the vid is, in the ANGLER you sit a lot higher off the water than mine.
