At last my Iggy is on the way again. A tax refund made my financially situation a lot more peasant, so I am finally working on the kayak again.
My version of the skeg is comming up too, probably during the weekend.
Ill make a couple of changes though. Ill take the cord and bungee through the deck, instead of hiding everything below deck. My thoughts are ease of repair in the field. Ill make a small hook for the bungee on the deck, which I think will make replacement easier when your fingers are cold.
Both cord and bungee will hold the skeg in the box if one of them breaks.
Im not quite sure if I should make the cut for the steel bolt at the white or the green location. And advice on that??
