You can get a Hobie Outback
You can get a Hobie Outback or Revolution for around $2500 and a lot less for 2nd hand as well(less than 2 grand),,most folks start with paddle yaks then upgrade in the future to peddles,,
The main thing is get a foot in the door and get any suitable yak,,its a life changeing event for the better,,

well done, now to put it in
well done, now to put it in action and get some fisj. just remember , until you get your confidence in it i would suggest you stay in close to shore as in swimming distance just in case of a capsize or better still , practice getting back into it without any gear on it out in a depth you cant touch the bottom
