You'll be fine. You're gonna find that boat to be super stable, yet really manueverable. Since you'll be in calm water, once you get a little more comfortable on it, try sitting side saddle (useful to grab things from the rear tankwell) and if you are feeling really ambitious, try jumping off getting back on in water over your head, a pond is great place to practice that. There are bunch of videos on tube tube about how to re-enter a sit on top.
Oh yeah and it may be tempting to go out without a pfd if it's hot, but don't do it, get used to having that thing on at all times and if it's not comfortable, get another one.

nice, yeah sometimes you see goofs out there on joppa without them, they'll say "oh yeah well if you fall off, you just stand up out here!" yeah that's great until you get swept into a channel and out to the river mouth!  |

Please practice getting back in. If you need to it's really good to had it down pat. If your new yak doesn't have handles , get some. Makes saving your ass much easier. I learned by sheer luck.
