Rosabel and I have always dreamt of getting our own kayak.
We would always rent out the kayak at Portulano whenever we spent our beach days over at the Castillo Beach House.
Portulano is an ultra-nice and-cozy diving resort next to our beach place at San Luis "LocLoc" Batangas.
A great place to go if you're a diver.
Check out their cool website.
Anyways, Rose and I always had a blast paddlin' around in the sea.
Exploring new areas, caves and coves around the Anilao Bay shoreline.
Pushing our stamina to see how far we could go.
And ultimately hoping that we could lose a few pounds in the process!!
Hehehehehehehehe!
Most of the kayaks in the mall cost a whole lot of moolah.
The nice fiberglass 2-seater (similar to the one we rent out) costs like Php 26thou!!!
So thas definitely --
WAY OVER BUDGET!!
Then one day in May - as we are strolling around S and R Price in Alabang.
We noticed an uber cool COLEMAN INFLATABLE KAYAK for sale!
Holy cow!
And for Php 5,999 only!!
You know what that means!
SOLD!!
We even bought the dual action Coleman Quick Pump for faster inflating and deflating time.
I think we planned around 2 beach trips after buying the kayak.
But unfortunately, we had to that cancel both trips at the last minute due to some unavoidable circumstances.
Our fortunes changed though when we were FINALLY able to make the super beach trip to Laiya last Independence Day Long weekend.
Here are some pics of ye beloved kayak in action over the deep blue:
Things we like about FLOATY (our pet name for the kayak):
1) Floaty's super-easy to bring along.
The whole kayak, detachable oars and pump fit in my old bodyboard bag.
It fits easily into any car trunk.
2) Floaty's fast to inflate.
You can inflate the whole thing in around 5 mins.
Best if you buy the Coleman Dual Action Pump.
Do it with your mouth instead?
Not if you wanna turn blue and take the whole day to inflate it!
3) Lotsa Space
Floaty easily fit my 6'4" frame with Mike G. up in front and Zachy in the middle.
Oh yeah.
There's even a mesh compartment at the back where you can store some beers!!
3) Floaty's cute!
Those colors are so cool. :)
Two dudes actually came up to us at the beach and asked if they could have pics with Floaty!
We are so blessed to have FLOATY in our family.
Here's looking to more fun in the future!
What ya say guys??
