[Piranha]

I'm an older guy(over 60), sedentary, (a teacher), and I can put my yak up no prob. I take off a coupla hatches to lighten it and give me a place to grab when I lift it up onto my van!~(the Fishmobile!)! We use wheeled kayak carts to pull the yaks back and forth from the sea. It's not a big deal. In general , wider yaks are slower and more stable, skinny yaks are faster and more tippy! I have a Fish n Dive , slow, but very stable as a fishing platform! You can see it(and me!) in my avatar. I also have a Malibu Pro 3 Tandem. A wee bit narrower and faster, but still quite stable! On the tandem I sit amidships in the yak so I don't get the Italian Gondola look! Piranha
