Hello everyone. I am a brand new kayaker and have a question about the kayak I just bought. Previously I had rented kayaks. I can't seem to find much information about the kayak I bought since it is apparently a discontinued model. I bought an Eddyline Calypso (NOT the new sit on top) It's fieberglass. About 16.5 feet long and has the usual scratches a used kayak of this age might have (the previous owner said it's a 1990). Other than normal wear and tear everything works fine but it has no padding on the seat or back and no skirt so I need to get those. I paid 150 bucks for it. The guy just wanted it out of his yard. I hope I didn't pay to much. Does anyone know anything about this model of kayak?
pictures of it are here:

$150!
Great deal. Good for you.
Give Eddyline a call. http://www.eddyline.com/customer-service/
If you can find the serial number they can probably tell you plenty about the boat.

A call to Eddyline is a good idea as well.
Nice looking
