RE: [Paddlewise] Kahuna Knee Brace/Pad

When I bought my Kahuna from Folding Kayak Adventures in Seattle, the owner
(name escapes me, as do many things lately) was looking at fitting knee braces
from one of their larger boats into the Kahuna by drilling holes for the
braces in the rolling PE ribs rather than the standard PC ribs.  I checked
back a few weeks later and he felt that the knee braces would get in the way
of a wet exit, but I've been wondering if there was a way to take that concept
and fit something that would provide a solid point for a brace but not get in
the way for exiting.  As my mechanical skills revolve around telling someone
else what I want done and not doing it myself, I've not pursued it, but it
might work as a starting point.

Does anyone know if Feathercraft makes a knee brace for the Kahuna?
