Hi all! Can you help me find a source that carries all sorts of kayak hardware. Everything from deck rigging to seats to (and please forgive my ignorance for not knowing the name of this) the adjustable metal thing that goes in the middle of a paddle, therefore making it adjustable. If a paper catalog is available that would be super as I love to look and the stuff and day dream and that doesn't work with a monitor too well.
Question #2: Again, please forgive my ignorance, but is balsa wood ever used in un-structural situations of a boat. e.g. bulkheads, fore and aft of the deck... will it be strong after it's glassed. By the time it's glassed, will I have saved any weight over not glassing a stronger wood?
Question #3: Anyone have ideas or plans for adjustable seats? I was thinking of making a large cockpit that will fit 2 but can move the seat to CB when I am alone. Does this make sense? Can't figure how to attach it so that it can be moved.
That's all for now. Thanks in advance for your help. Zax
