Mattdrp,

Baitcasters on Hwy 7 has some good kayaks available for sale.
In fact, if I am not mistaken they have some demo ones for sale which you may get a good price on.

Worth checking out if you live in Franktown.

I have a Walden. It cost us around $500. But we got it from the Ottawa Boat show and it was a few years ago.

NO!!!

My mother bought one from the CP CT.
She got it for $75 as it was a return of one of the managers.

Its small, tippy and not good for fishing.

Musky51 had a nice canoe for sale. I think he wanted like $250-$350 for it? Pretty good price!

Seriously Dude,

Go to Baitcasters or see Musky51,

The products they have surpass that of anything Crappy Tire has.
Unless you are looking at it because you want to buy it with your CT credit card?

will i was looking at the first one because it is on sale and the other one was a good price

In comparison to what?
I'd sooner pay $100 more and get a quality one.

Honestly, go to Baitcasters. I'm sure they will have something comparable in price. But better quality for sure.

OK thanks i am looking for something under $500

Post by **Jimmy_1** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 3:22 pm

Then call them up and ask them what they have in-stock for what you are willing to pay!

I know that that canoe Musky51 had was under 5 bills.
