For my birthday this year, I'm likely to get some sort of small watercraft.
I'll use it to get off the shore for fishing, as well as paddling the kids around (one at a time, of course).
On my radar: a canoe, inflatable kayak, or pontoon.
I have an F350 with a slide-in truck camper. I'd prefer not to HAVE to tow a trailer so that's a strike against the pontoon. Getting a canoe on top of the camper could be cumbersome, so that's a negative there, too. I'm finding myself more and more drawn to the inflatable kayak option.
For those of you that have similar small watercraft, what would you recommend? If it makes a difference, I have no plans whatsoever to mount a motor on it. It'll be strictly paddle-power.
Thanks in advance.
