Thinking about getting a yak?

Currently, REI is having their anniversary sale and all their yaks are 10 to 20% off. Probaly the best prices I seen around.

Shipping can be free if you get it delievered to one of their stores. Sale ends on 5/15.

Some yak prices are:
WS tarpon 120 $573
OK Prowler 13 $593

Most store's quote for tarpon120 is 675. You can save up to 20% if you sign up to be their member. And there is no tax!

wow... this might be it for me. :)

You can get some good deals from REI. I bought my first Tarpon 120 and Caper a couple of years ago from one of these sales. I also have bought a couple of kayaks from kayakfishingstuff.com since then. I pretty much buy all my gear from KFS or REI. Their member program is a good deal. I just bought a $130 PFD for $80 because of their sale and earned dividend points. REI is also good about taking back returns. Last year I bought a real expensive Werner paddle using the my 20% off and returned after a couple of uses because I thought my Aquabound Expedition paddle was just as good and cheaper.

Just ordered my orange Tarpon120!! Yes!!! Coming over to the dark side (not conventional, but yak side)... :) yahoo!!!

Edit: They did charge me the sales tax. Its a law if you live in the state where there is a physical store, you must pay tax.

Total came out to be around 650 with a Bending Branch Paddle which was 10% off (original 60).
