You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.

After all the smoke clears, one thing is for sure and that is your need to be satisfied with which route you pick.

I personally have had Andy do a repair on one of my past kayaks (Hobie Quest) and I most say he does excellent work at a very reasonable rate. I was glad that I had him do the repairs. With that said, if you are on a low budget have Andy repair the yak and move forward.

If you do not feel 100% comfortable with this work being done then save the $$$ for the 2011 hull purchase. This is far cheaper than a "new" purchase! In the end it's your decision on new hull vs repaired hull.

Just be happy with the choice you pick!

Can't beat that, unless of course you can talk Andy into a free jet propulsion & bilge system!
