Given the restricted cargo space of the Nordkap, long tripp supplies has
always been a mayor concern for me. Many times I fantasized with the idea of
a "floating Bantam" to carry more stuff while keep enjoying the Nordkap
excellent seaworthiness. Did you ever tried something like this ??? How did
it afect your paddling ???

I have to tow other kayakers from time to time, and even using combined
elastic/rigid ropes, this is something I never like to do any longer.

Any coments ???
