: Where can I buy nylon carrying straps? I will be using them on Arctic Tern
: 14, but any similar to the commercial kayak types should do fine.

Hi Dave

About any hardware store will carry the ratcheted hold down straps ( 1" wide ). Probably cheaper than any sporting-goods or specialty store. Juat use care as they will sinch down very tight, and sometimes, with time, as in a long trip, stretch a bit. I got mine for hoisting my GoldWing up off the floor to do work on the front forks. Hope this helps.
