So I'm looking to get a Kayak

Cabaal

I've done abit of Kayaking on and off over the years in Ireland and on holidays, not much but a little.

However recently I've been toying with the idea of buying my own that I can bring with us when we go camping in the summers to different coastal camp sites and I could use the odd time on local rivers.

I'd be planning on just taking it easy going down rivers really, not going down rapids.

As this would be used by myself and my wife I was thinking of this,

Curious people's thoughts on this, am I picking something completely unsuitable. Never bought a Kayak before.

The other option would be 2x of these http://www.i-canoe.com/en/Kayaks.21/Sit_On_Top.118/Bic_Kayaks.49/BICOUAS/Bic_Ouassou_Sit_On_Top_Kayak.562.html

for me, the Ouassou is the better boat - I'm not a fan of SOT' s but if I was to buy one, that would be it.
One of the lightest (if not the lightest) SOT's available, perhaps also the most maneuverable, nice hull shape for surfing and holds it's value pretty well. Anything else I've seen up close look like big tubs that will catch a lot of wind and require 2 people to load onto the roof rack

I'd go for the Ouassou, very manouverable, very stable, tad bit slow from what I can remember. Never liked the doubles much but thats me.
