: Hi builders,

: If you have built the footbraces in Nick Schade's The Stripbuilt
: Sea Kayak, I'd like to read your assessment of the system. I am
: currently building a Pygmy Arctic Tern 14 and distrust the
: plastic Keepers braces (not durable). If you have any
: suggestions or improvements, I would appreciate knowing of them.
: I've used the search function on this site, but cannot strike
: pay dirt on this.

: Cascade Smartrack are durable but expensive. I liked the Smartrack
: system, because you could easily adjust them while on the
: water--not possible with the Werner and the Keepers footbraces.

: Thanks in advance.

Any pictures of Nicks foot braces. I'd be interested in seeing them, put plastic ones in my first build. They work fine, but like the idea of building them.

Thanks, George
