In Response To: Strip: Foot braces (Dan Gallagher)

: I'm getting ready to attach my yakima foot braces on my Guillemot and Great
: Auk. There's no problem with attaching the braces to the inside of the
: hull on the Great Auk, but with the Guillemot it looks like I'll need to
: attach the braces above the sheer line on the inside of the deck for a
: comfortable fit. Is there a problem with that? Thanks in advance, Dan

I've been having the exact same thoughts about Yakima braces in my Guillemot, but i can't see what problems there should be. Still haven't gotten around to epoxy them in though.
