Does anyone have a 2nd hand river kayak that they are looking to sell on? I'd like to get one this autumn and would prefer to get a 2nd hand one if possible.

I am 5" 6 - so nothing too big.

Hi Mairi

You could try here

It would probably be better if you had a particular type in mind.

Hi Mairi,
This i3 might be worth a look. I have the 222 version. Good all round boat to start out with.

Necky blunt is a good bit bigger boat. One in the club if you want to try it out.

Erica's 5ft somethingish (she's not as tall as me and I'm 5ft 9!) so sizewise should be good. She's also living in Cork so could prob bring it along to the site some evening if you wanted a look / try.
Loads of options for you!

These are a very popular boat in the club. I had one, I loved it!
