Re: End Pours
In Response To: Re: End Pours (Jay Stallman)
You need a lot of volume of air to float you and the boat if it fills with water, the volume at the the location of the end pours isn't nearly large enough.
This is why kayaks have bulkheads in front of and behind the cockpit, to provide storage and trap air, lots of it. A cubic foot of air will float approximately 60 lbs. of material. If the boat weighs 50 lbs. and you weigh 190 lbs (nice round number) you'll need to have 4 cubic feet of air to float it right at the surface of the water, need more if you want a chance to bail the boat.
