RE: inflatable canoe / kayak
I've been looking at these again, especially the gumotex ones. They look to be the best inflatable, by far. They're pretty pricey though. Then I found myself on ebay, and you can pick up a 15' fiberglass fishing / day boat, that provides shelter etc for under a grand. Sometimes including trailer & outboard motor for about £650. Be nice to have a powered option for those quick getaways! I presume that you could paddle / push the thing along with a long pole too if necessary?
Now if I had a trailer I'd actually be able to keep the thing somewhere. The problem I have would be securing at normal kayak / canoe cause they're pretty easy to pick up an bugger off with.
So, going to get a tow-bar stuck on my little HRV, then invest in a boat! When I move I'll just have to find somewhere to stick it, if I don't have a driveway - probably a self storage place.
