[CKF Info] cockpit storage?

[Henk Aling]

Beverley, how will you access the underdeck storage with
your sprayskirt on? I have a nylon sprayskirt with a zipper
which is great if rolling upside down is not your cup of tea.
That will let me access my underdeck storage. The brand
is Wildwasser, it is quite sturdy and easy to put on and off.

I epoxied 4 eye hooks under the deck and wrapped a leak
bicycle innertube through it in an 8 shape:

(Never mind the foot rest in the pic, it has long been replaced!).
I use it to store my flippers and the pump above it. It does not
bother me when I wet exit or re-enter. If you have a glass
boat, epoxy should work I think. It is obviously heavy duty,
better than drilling holes through the deck if it were my choice.

I also would like to store some things in my cockpit for easy access during 
a paddle, but there are no attachment places in my Capella 161.


Therefore, I was wondering if there was  some  type of velcro or suction cup 
mesh bag (??) that could be attached under the front deck inside the 
cockpit.


Does anyone have any suggestions?


Thank you
Bev
