Sounds like you've put a lot of thought into your deck management. I appreciate the ideas. Couple of questions arise. You wrote: >(I also have a knee-tube with top mounted 4" hatch for valuables-it holds two liters by >volume). Is the top mounted 4" hatch outside of the cockpit, on your foredeck? Is the knee tube a sealed unit or can you also access it from within your cockpit? What kind of hatch cover do you use? Do you find the knee tube to be obstructive at all for reentries? Ocean cockpit or keyhole? >I just leave the tube dangling behind the kayak in the cold sea, so that on hot days, a couple >of sips give me nice cool water...ahhhh Nice cool water sounds good to me. "Nice" and "water" we get easily here in South Louisiana but "cool" ain't handy. How does dangling your tube cool the water?
