First time

My dealer here will let you rent a Hobie, $35 for 24 hours and applies that money to the price of a new one if (when) you buy one.
So today I rented a OB (last years model but it still gives me a good idea of what to expect), took it out to the park where there's a nice sized lake to try it out. After about 15 minutes, I felt nice and comfortable. I cruised all over the lake, and never caught a single fish. Not that I cared, I was having plenty of fun. Hoping to pick mine up in a couple weeks. I just can't wait. Only problem was that in the excitement, I forgot my sunblock. After 4 straight hours in the Florida sun my legs are very badly burned. Oh well, I have sunblock ready for next time. I sure did have a blast!

Hey Shep,
A hearty welcome to the Dark Side, i.e., kayak-fishing! If you are getting a Hobie, you will have the best fishing yak out there. Good luck and keep us posted on your exploits.
Best,
Dick
