Re: Ocoee coming back?

How exactly does it fold on waves? I bought a Bell Ocoee last summer and haven't experienced any folding. Haven't broke my gunnels yet and I don't find them to be all that flexible. One of the deck plates broke the second time I took it out though. I also owned a Dagger Ocoee for a really short peri...

Carrying gear on a Spanish Fly?

Looking for some ideas on how to carry my crap on the SF. In my previous boat I would stuff a dry bag underneath the front air bag that was connected with a carabiner to the floor. I did the same thing with my water bottle. There isn't currently anywhere to connect to the floor of the SF. What has w...

Re: installing grab loops?

Ended up using webbing stuffed with a small section of rope tied together with a water knot. The water knot makes a closed loop correct? Is there a different loop knot that the last 2 comments are referring to?

Re: installing grab loops?

Thanks for the vynabond tip ezwater. I suspected that might be the case, but wanted to skip going out to buy more glue. I do have some contact cement, but it sounds like g-flex would be the glue of choice. Although I'm leaning towards this idea of skipping the pipe all together. Is there any issue w...

Re: z drag kit/ first aid kit storage?

I have 4 carabiners(2 locking), 2 prusiks, a 15' sling of webbing, and 2 fixed pulleys. I'm going off of how I was taught by a SWR course.

z drag kit/ first aid kit storage?

I just bought all the crap for my z drag kit and I'm going to get a first aid kit together. Was debating how to store it on my boat, or person. What's your preferred method? I have a greenjacket and I've heard of people putting all the z drag kit on the jacket. I know another guy that puts the conte...

installing grab loops?

I want to put some on my Ocoee. Never done this before. Any tips before I start drilling? I've heard of glueing in PVC pipe. I've had another person tell me that aluminum tubing works better?? How low should I go? Will vynabond do the trick?

Re: Frankie Hubbard?

It's weird to me that there is so little information on Frankie Hubbard on the interweb when so many people are in love with his boat designs. Why is that?

Thanks for the feedback! I've leaned back towards leaving it as is. It doesn't move around all that much.

C1 conversion outfitting?

I have a H3 245 that was already converted when I bought it. The previous owner built a foam saddle on top of the rail that was already in place. He glued the saddle to both the rail and the bottom of the hull. I just noticed that the saddle is no longer connected to the bottom of the hull. As far a...
