: I've basically finished stripping the hull; had to 're-do' the bow external

: Looking forward a bit - Yakima footbraces; perhaps a seat from Redfish. Any

I like Yakima footbraces, they are heavy though.

At some point I want to try PXT Kayak's Bumfortable seat. They are only about 45 miles from here, I really should go do it. I also want to try their new kayak, would be nice if I'd get both a day off and it wasn't raining .
