So these long swimming noodles are a good way of gaining extra buoyancy, yes?

 

Well good ol' Woolworths have them for £2.99 each ( about 4' long), is this cheap and how many do i need?

Thats very cheap average price is £5 each!

 

The buoyancy is for when you have a capsize it stops the amount of water getting inside the kayak it makes no difference to normal use sit inside kayaks use airbags to minimize the amount of water that gets in to the kayak.

Sorry could not resist that one.

 

Here is a pool noodle, no it's not a slang word for senior citezens who go swimming (thats pool wrinkles) it's the long foam float they are dancing with ;)

1 on the lure is worth 2 from the bait.

looks just the same as pipe lagging i get for a few pence at Jewsons builders merchants ... :rolleyes:

 

Yeah but they dont do that stuff in hot pink or cool blue mate :D:P

As long as it's the same type of high density foam it would be just as good and as you say a good bit cheaper too.
