: Hi Jim,

: Yosterwerks' site has a pretty easy buildup for float bags. I've
: made several and they are pretty solid.

: You might also consider a seasock. In addition to keeping the

: clean.

Eric,
Thanks for the tip. I'm familiar with Yostwerks. I'll check it out. When you say seasock,is that the same thing as a spray-skirt? The cockpit of the Chuckanut 12 probably won't take one, but the SeeBee will.
