Jon,

I got a cheap (I think I paid $350) sit on (Lifetime Teton 10-11'?) at Dick's during Covid which I use rarely but want to keep. You are welcome to borrow it for a weekend. If works, you can pick one up at Dick's https://www.dickssportinggoods.com/f/sit...chType=Category for $479 or less if you wait for a sale. I also have an old sit in Pelican (not for sale), but you could borrow it to try it.

My son has a pair of Hobies (pedal/fin/rudder) down in Niantic a block from the Giant's Neck clubhouse. They are not for sale but my son or I could take you out to try them to see if you want to spring for a Hobie. He picked up them up used, one was a grand the other I am not sure. I believe new, they are $3K or more pending what bells and whistles you put on them. The Hobies are very stable, and move well. A good used one is probably a good investment if you are going to fish it frequently. I sent you a PM with my number.
