    Don't own one but I've always wanted to have a blast on one. Gets me annoyed when I see people out on them at the local river. I WANT A GO!!

    I'm going to buy a kayak in the next few months. Not exactly in the same league I know...

    I used to own one, but I resell it. The cost of its repair gave me headache. Replacement parts are costly and not easy to find.

    Yes, they are expensive to buy new - think close to the cost of a cycle. ;)

    I had one and sold it last year. Yes, the upkeep is expensive, so it does take a lot to maintain. You also have to keep them clean if you use them in salt water. Otherwise the parts get screwed up quickly.
