Shoot, we can make watertight hatch covers--we should be able to make a watertight hard cover that doesn't require an external fabric cover! ;)

Wouldn't it have been great to have a way to lock all of our stuff in the kayaks, and have the kayak locked in the tree when we got to Friday Harbor, and then be able to walk around and not worry about anything?

: What about making a hard cover out of wood strips and fiberglass that hinges
: down the center to fold up and put in a hatch. It could have key locks on
: the top with the tab that turns under the kayak inside to keep anyone from
: lifting it off. Then it could be covered with a regular cover to keep the
: water out of the hinge line seam and the locks.
