: Seattle fabrics will likely have what you need. Or, you can just
: get "coated nylon" at most fabric stores, in a variety
: of colors. It's got some sort of waterproof coating on one side.
: I've made a few sea socks out of it. It is very thin and would
: be suitable for your coaming. I give it about a "D"
: though, for durability. The coating has worn/flaked off of mine
: in high wear spots - BUT it still works great as a sea sock. I
: just shouldn't leave it filled with water for more than an hour
: or so, as it would now leak out.
: The "Masik" online newsletter at qajaqusa.org has
: instructions, in an older issue, for making your own sea sock.
: Good luck!
: Dave
Thank you now that I see Seattle fabrics on the screen I remember them. I did read the Masik article, made it seem easier than I'm sure it will be.
