To answer your question, the Feathercrafts come with a 2 way pump. It takes about 5 minutes to pump up. Total setup time is 15 - 20 minutes. If you want to see them in the NYC Metro area check out NY Kayak on pier 40 as they are a local dealer and have a Java there.
Don't forget that you have to take special precautions with an inflatable when you're flinging around a 7" plug with a set of razor sharp hooks. If you're the careless type I wouldn''t advise it.
If I had a place to store it and a suitable car I would probably use a Cobra Navigator or one of the other plastic SOT's as indeed they are easier to rig up for fishing. But as an apartment dweller who won't be denied the total rush of fishing from a yak I've found the folding and inflatable yaks a good alternative. Plus if you travel you can take your boat with you.
Sites? Do a search on google. Don't want to ruffle any feathers here as I'm grateful that this part of the Noreast board has been opened, period.
Inspite of what some others may feel, classes are a good investment . You can learn proper stroke technique, safety, navigation, and rescue techniques (don't need to eskimo roll a SOT) that make you better prepared for a wider variety of conditions. Again I would check out NY Kayak in the city if you're in the metro area, or some college recreation departments.
good luck,
