Duane, I haven't decided if my technique is bad, or I'm used to "no" rocker Brit boats, but your description is timely. I've been thinking about doing the same thing. I don't have the initial problems you did, but I'm glad to see this is a viable option. Any other less permanent options you considered along the way? Kevin from At the stern, I modified the hull by building up a rail of epoxy and fiberglass along the keel line for a length of about 3 1/2 feet. This rail tapered up to a max height of 1 inch towards the stern. After tuning the hull, the sea kayak is handling great. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
