One kayak I built had a flexing bottom and when I inched over a log my seat came loose and reattached a second later in a slightly different place which was very uncomfortable I could pull over to replace it correctly. Other than that I would and do velcro all my seats so I can adjust to the load. I Used the Heavy duty 2 inch self adhesive and still used contact cement. If you don't use marine, or heavy duty velcro it does not seem to stick together very well when wet. my 2 cents Dana *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Feb 10 1998 - 08:31:44 PST
