: In my plastic boat, I put in a under-deck hydration pack:
............
A lot of paddlers in Oz seem to have this system - good idea when you need to keep hydrated when it's hot (lots of water); keeps the weight low in the boat.
: I've yet to adapt this system to my S&G but the bladder lies pretty
: flat under the deck bungee and has yet to wash off but I do hit
: it on occasion with my knuckles!!
: My Black Pearl only has a simple set of decklines so I can't carry
: very much up front other than pair of mitts/head wear and
: goggles!!
I use a Kokatat Tributary hydration pack (you'll need to replace the bladder - see reviews at MEC website) which attaches to the PFD. Works well, and it's gotten the water bottle off the deck. It would probably attach to non-Kokatat PFDs pretty well, as it has its own set of webbing and clips for attachment.
Hydration bladder under the bungees would be better than a water bottle - I didn't think of that .
