At 2:40 the boat you see is the Wilderness Systems Pamlico 100. SizzlinNinja I sent you a message with a link to the product as well as a URL to where you can find more boats just like it. Let me know if you have anymore questions! Cheers!

This was very helpful. I recently kayaked for the first time (after canoeing over 20 years ago). I enjoyed it, would like to purchase a kayak, but wasn't sure what to look for. This was a great first start. Thanks.
