Now I believe that to be true! And most of that is their attitude or missinformation by salesperson "Bonehead" , Who will sell the a kayak that "can go anywhere" because it's a SEA KAYAK and designed for the ocean
Face it , the truth of the matter is , it's still a tiny little human powered vessel. The only advantage is you can upright it if you do turn over , unlike a 12' rowboat.
ALL boats have their limitations and those who don't realize it , they will be read about in the newspapers sooner or later , unless the are very lucky.
