Hey everybody! I'm going to look at a boat Friday, but I'm on a very tight budget and a college student looking to fish in my free time, and have really been tossing around the idea of a kayak, but I've never been in one before. If I don't get this boat come Friday. My decision will be made. Any advice on what to get would be great. I'm a bigger guy and workout a lot so currently I'm at about 270lbs. Looking for a used or new kayak around $800. Also would like a very stable and wide one as I've never been in one before. Don't care if it's abled to be paddled fast or not. Thanks for any help!

I'm 6,3" 270. I have a vibe seaghost 130 and it is awesome. Very stable and fast. It tracks extremely well. So well that I never even use the rudder. You should definitely check them out.
