Second hand yaks

Post by greg--maka »

Where or what would be a good place or site to buy second hand Kayaks.I was reading an old thread [clintos] i think and Tim or his brother was selling one for $650.I don't seem to see much on Gumtree. A buy and sell section on this site would be great.

Be patient. As the water turns cold, people start selling. Around May or June is a good time for buyers. Here, people may upgrade any time.

Make sure you use the ebay and gumtree filters so you don't have to read hundreds of ads for the same 2.7m fitted fishing kayak in different colours, option fitted with fitted 'vintage' seat, option fitted with questionable quality motor, etc. :roll:
