Few people were asking to see some pictures of the outfitting in a couple of my boats. So I figured at start a new topic. So post pictures of your boats outfitting. Help give others ideas for the next project and give feed back on what you see.
Just finished my Jackson today. The idea is no straps, with foot pegs. Won't repeat myself from my last thread so, here's the link. Also included photos of my other 3 boats. http://www.flickr.com/photos/58344240@N ... 730896711/
How much of a difference do hip blocks make when rolling?

I think the hip pads help transmit the hip snap to the boat. It was a bit hard for me to get used to at first but I'm glad I put the saddle time in to realize the benefits they give- lots more boat control.
Smurff, nice work on the outfitting, look like you like to be tight in your boats... I dont see lap belt very often in oc boat, are they common down where you are? Is that a Bulldog in the back ground of one of the pics?
Excellent tinkering; I think I've got to up my game.
With that much investment in minicell what do You using to glue the pieces together and what do You use to bond it to the hull?
Adhesive- weldwood contact cement in red can and I use the gel formula. Available at Lowes and Home Depot which makes it easy to get. Around $12 for a pint.
