I saw a picture from a kayak builder on the web that put his hydration pack in the rear hatch and put a grommet in the deck within easy reach of the paddler where he ran the drink tube. This kept the deck clear and the drink cooler. He stated that the pack was velcroed to the bottom. >From: Ong Yong Hui <happywolfie_at_hotpop.com> > Well one thing that you can do is to change from a bottle to a >hydration pack with a drinking tube?
