: This is very true but, for some reason, all my boats take on more
: water than my fellow paddlers. This includes my plastic Baffin,
: my S&G Point Bennett and now my Disko Bay. I think it's a
: product of both my boats and paddling style. All three boats
: have relativley low, to very low, back decks that are constantly
: awash. And, as I said in my initial posting, I edge my boats to
: the point where the coamings are always in the water. A tight
: neoprene skirt can only keep out so much water, I guess.
: Better get to work on the pump mod!! Thinking on taking my old
: skirt and modding it to allow me to pump out the boat without
: having to take it off. Haven't figure this part out yet. Any
: suggestions?

Might just try tightening up the bungie on your skirt(s). If there's any looseness at all it'll leak.
A mod like a drybag's top might work to allow a pump to fit into a skirt and still keep the water out when you're not pumping.
