: Nice thing about doing it this way is it's easy to sand the
: underside of the coaming where the dowels come thru to make it
: nice and smooth and flush. Much easier on the legs than the
: protruding machine screws and nuts.

Hi Bill,
Thanks for the info, The machine screws are what dig in my legs. I am going to pull them out and glue in dowels just like you explained.
I installed screws from under up into the coaming on my last Nikumi19. That was NOT EASY with clearence to work being the issue on a low volume qajaq.
Thanks again,
Clayton Plunkett
