If anyone spots a red kayak floating around Eastern Lake, please capture it and shoot me a pm. A friend of mine lost hers due to the rising lake level (hopefully not theft).

Thanks.

Doubt if it's a theft. I know someone who keeps three kayaks sitting in her back yard in Seagrove.

Since I'm kind of casually shopping for a kayak, what's RiverOtter's new one? What's nice about it?

Just kidding 😀 . It's a Hobbie Kona that I bought from Jim at the rental place during his big end of season rental fleet sale :cool:

I'm disappointed. The first one sounds more fun, although not on Eastern Lake.

Would "Jim at the rental place" be Seagrove Icehouse? I wanted to get down there, but now it will be next weekend before I can - leaving for East TN tomorrow.

I have only one seaters that are made for riding the waves -- very manuverable. The Hobie Kona is a two seater, and the seat rests are very nice :confused:. The boat holds a straight line and is fairly wide, making it very stable. It is a bit on the heavy side compared to mine, but it is no heavier than my canoe, so I can load it without assistance.

Edit: it looks just like the red one which you took the photo of, Treefrog -- same model.

OK, so I'm looking at Yakima's web site. Which rack are you getting?

The Hully Roller/Mako Saddle combo sure looks like it would make loading and unloading easy.

Did you get the Mighty Mounts to adapt to your roof rack?

Yup, I ordered the yakima Mightymounts with the Hully Rollers and mako Saddle. Proplem is the Mako Saddles don't work with the Mightymounts. Either that or they need another part to work. Both my trucks have the factory cross bars so I don't need the Yakima cross bars. As I was assembling the Mako Saddles the manuel said "does not work with Mighty Mounts and Factory crossbars"

That's disappointing. I'm in much the same situation with an Outback that already has crossbars. Let us know how you solve that.
