: Hi Dale,

: I have been considering doing the same thing. I had thought about making
: somthing and just hot gluing it on until I get the right size. I figure
: you probably saved me the trouble. So how far does it hang down?

I made it straight with the bottom along the back, but I probably have 1/2 - 1" of clearance when it's sitting on the ground because of the rocker of the kayak. I didn't want it to be sitting on the fin if I'm sitting in the kayak when it's not in the water.
