As I just mentioned to Ralph, I sometimes do. Only in rougher conditions any
more. I too find it interferes with my paddling, and really don't want to
have to think about where the line is when rolling or risk it causing me to
blow a roll.

I've been giving a lot of thought to doing away with my 2 piece spare and
building a storm paddle. My question: I've seen several kayaks that look
like they were built to park a greenland or storm paddle on the front deck
(the webbing and/or bungy works out just right). Is this planned or added
after purchase? If added, what are some of the better methods to park your
paddle on the front deck?
