[Paddlewise] Pumping more water

Seattle Water  Sports (PWS) in Seattle sell sea socks.  I have three of them
for my Pygmy's and they have performed very well, they do stay on when the
spray skirt is pulled off and on.  The one problem they have is drapping down
on your legs, this problem was solved by Pygmy Boats by placing a closed cell
foam block at the end of the sock.......the foam is about 2" thick and is
shaped like a bulhead, it fits snuggly (S) into the end of the sock and
stretches the fabric along the sides and top of the cockpit area.  You could
also use velcro glued to bottom of the deck and on the top of the sock to keep
it up and out of the way.
