Dude,

Your are making a good decision... Mine has been on at least 2 years, fantastic. Last weekend pulled a 220lbs 20 something kayaker out of the water. I think he may have kissed the platform before climbing into my 17. He had no PFD and he was about 2 miles from where started with an almost submerged cheap kayak.. Dumb Ass...

He sat on the platform and started to drain the kayak by lifting it... until we could lift it on to the boat...

This guys was a recent graduate of Rutgers U and worked in an IT dept at a major insurance co....

Help me understand this logic...:-)
