Question/Advice -- Boat Recommendations

Post Body

I currently weigh 395 lbs, and I really want to start Kayaking. I don’t know what ones to look at and where to look. Any suggestions?

ETA: I’m not looking for workout advice. I understand Kayaking isn’t the best for weight loss. This is supplemental to what I am already doing because I enjoy it.

Kayaking is not aerobic exercise. You will not lose weight kayaking. I wish you well in your journey to get in shape but this is not the way. Perhaps reward yourself with the kayak after you have lost some weight. Keep it as a goal, a reward. Kayaking is absolutely amazing and worth it but I don't want you focusing on it for weight loss. You need to focus on something like a rowing machine, lots of distance walking, and the like. AEROBIC workout is key. Kayaking is lazy work.
