Re: Kayak and Hammock Camping
If you like kayak camping, you might really like canoe camping. Kayak camping requires backpacking type equipment and attention to size/ weight restrictions. Canoe camping is close to car camping because you can haul so much stuff. Plus, canoes are a little easier to portage.
Most kayaks under 17' really restrict gear loading. For folks with smaller kayaks and a love for gear, you can get a smaller cheap kayak to load your gear into and then pull behind your kayak. If you do this, learn how to tie the nose of the gear kayak so the line (rope) pulls the gear kayak from under the kayak and not the top and not straight off the nose. Otherwise, the two kayaks fight each other.
