Teach-- My first trip out I paddled with a pod of about 6 ~ 8 Dolphins.. they really did not care I was there with the careful no splash paddle stroke. The thing seems to draft about 6" of water!! I paddled across shallow flats at low tide. I portaged across a sand bar and paddle MILES for around 6 hours. I burnt my legs to literal blisters!! -- wear something on you legs they are postioned perfectly to get 2nd degree burns.
If you still have a $100.00 to spare I do not think a waterproof VHF radio is optional. Turn to channel 9-- SEATOW SEATOW SEATOW this is Lost Kayak I am two miles off the Dania beach water tower and drifting to sea.

Or you can call the Coasties on 16 if you are truly in peril.
