It will depend on you, where you want to kayak. If you live near a river then you may choose the river kayak, but if you live near sea then you must choose sea kayak. There are many differences between sea kayak and river kayak.Some of the rivers are specially built, which are to run only on the river, rivers, and water are usually mild and the currents are not high, but the sea is water and there are many streams which are not suitable for some of the rivers and the sea and the other rivers Not for this. It depends on where you want to go kayaking. If you want to know to about kayak check here:

SOURCE: When can I paddle with kayak?

You can, but it's all about compromise ? and safety. Generally, the shorter the boat the easier it will turn (great for rivers and white water), but the slower you'll be getting from point A to point B. The longer the boat (most sea kayaks) the better it generally tracks and the faster and safer it travels through water.

How hard is kayaking?

It's not as hard as you think, but it's a little harder for those who are new to them. But if they can handle the caring properly, Kayaking and the rules that come to them are good enough to know and it is easy to care for it. The body has to be exercised to do kayaking. It's a kind of drill. Kayaking in the ocean is a bit difficult because there are many strong waves in the sea and kayaking in the river is comparatively easy. This whole Puerto makes you reluctant to master your Kayaking rules.To know more about kayak visit here:

Sevylor river xk2 does not track well on still water

This inflatable kayak is meant to turn to facilitate maneuverability in whitewater; it needs to turn.

Try attaching piece of plastic as a skeg, perhaps the skeg from the Sevylor Tahiti will suffice (or a piece of lucite or a plastic cutting board). A skeg makes a boat track straight.

My Sevylor Colorado came with an optional skeg which I only attach on flatwater (never whitewater).

Is the yakima big stack safe for fiberglass kayaks

I used the big stack for my river kayaks and it did fine. But my fiberglass sea kayaks are so much heavier that I did not take the chance. For 1 of my kayaks I spent a lot of money to get the special sea kayak rack and it worked great. For my wife's kayak I saved some money and bought some simple v-shaped foam rubber rack attachments for $20. The foam attachments are so much easier, I don't even use the Yakima attachemnts any more. My suggestion - save your money and go with the cheap foam attachments.
