Are Old Town kayaks worth it?

As far as recreational kayaks go, sit-on-top models are the better choice for paddling far from shore, including on the ocean. They won’t fill with water if you capsize, and they are easy to climb back onto if you fall off. Sit-inside recreational kayaks frequently have large cockpits and limited floatation.
