Oh, and what would you add with say $3-5K to spend and no space/garage restrictions?

My fleet just increases. The T-160 is my main ride. It catches a lot of fish and does well on distances and heavy weather. The old T-140 is pretty much relegated to wife/visitor duty, but I still take it out when I know I'm going to be in tight places. My wife has adopted and renamed the T-140. It's new name is "Oliver". The Search-15 I'm storing for a friend is also a backup boat. The Guillemot I started building is wall/ceiling art. I'm not allowed to work on it at the moment.

For an extra 3-5K, I'd probably get one of those fast fishing skis they use in South Africa, like a Kaskazi Dorado. Maybe a sit-in too. Or just a tandem so I could get a kayak chauffer and save myself some paddling.

I just bought a Aire Caracal inflatable for my daughter name Sierra. She is 5 and is ready for some whitewater this spring. It is here Santa Clause gift. IF I HAD 3-5 K to spend . I would buy a 13 ft cat fully loaded.

I use a Kaskazi Dorado ll, for offshore fishing.
I use a Cobra Expedition for fishing the ICW and flats covering long distances.
I have a New Zealand made Ocean Kayak "Sprinter", that I fish from occaisionally, and use for training and fitness.

I also have a Malibu Mini-X, that I use for freshwater fishing in my backyard.
An Emotion Mojo, that's basically used as a loaner for visiting company.

Another 3 to 5k would buy me a Fenn Surfski, and a couple more Kaskazi's.
