Kayak Rigging

[Jaffa]

There was a thread about the expanding foam on the kayakfishingstuff forums but that was a couple of years ago. If i can find it I'll post the link.

 

If i remember no one could say if it was safe to use or not. Think some people tried it using bin liners to contain the stuff and stop it sticking to the hull. Problems included the heat generated by a large quantity of foam curing, and incomplete curing if you tried to do to much at once. I suspect it would be godawful stuff to remove if the experiment fails

Nice one Jaffa.

 

Thie link would be good for Zigs, if you can find it.

Ive heard of guys useing it between twin skin boat hulls,and not being happy with the results.

A Kayak may be a different story, the bin liner idea is a good one:)

point taken guys, will experiment with various light things. once hit my head on a floating rock in the adriatic, wasn't expecting that while swimming.

was just looking at newts pic of a radar reflector when an idea came. buy a foil helium ballon & put it on a ten foot string, even if it doesnt refect radar, it would be visible from a fair distance.

 

oh, the thing about yaking the A35, will practice on a B road first. when i went on holiday to cornwall when i was little, spent days waxing my surf board, got to perranporth, no surf. so what did i do? rode it down a sand dune. first go was great, it took all the wax off, no surfing that holiday

Now theres food for thought Ziggy.

The foam thread on KFS. Not sure if BillW ever did post a DIY bulkhead guide.

 

Zig, I like the ballon idea , Elton once posted about a kite that served the same purpose; looked interesting.
