    I was looking for a way to tie this down in my yak...thank you for the review helped so much!

      Depending on how much weight you are carrying in the krate, but you can also use straps that have Cam buckles, and simply shorten then sop these is not too much loose strap hanging around.

    The best crate storage system on the market so far, been a hobie fan, better than the h crate, and pretty much all the others’ awesome design by wilderness systems’

      Couldn't agree more! And thanks so much for taking the time to watch my video - appreciate it.

    I learned the hard way not to bungee my crate to the Yak. I use 4 lengths of paracord with a loop on one end and cinch the crate down. Or I'll screw flat straps to the kayak that snap through the crate.
    It was a $1000+ lesson for me

      Im withya - I use small cam straps now - similar but smaller, to what I use to strap the yaks down. Great pick up, and thanks for watching.

    Nice review and great crate. I own a jkrate for my Jackson but this would be my second choice. I like the fact water doesn’t come in easy at all as it’s kinda sealed up. Good job wilderness

    I think that might be the smartest crate I’ve seen.

    Nice set up! Are the clip in mesh holders in the krate something you made/ or purchased separately , or do they come with the krate?

    • @RodNPaddle
      @RodNPaddle  3 роки тому

      Thanks for watching, yes they came with the krate - although I believe that may have changed now, and you order them through Wildy. However, I only use one most of the time now, as they take up as much space as a plano box and I found I kept putting stuff in them that I was rarely if ever using. If they were single sided that maybe a better bet, but no idea what the flip side would then do.

    Great video but I'm interested in the second bag that you were using the orange one with the velcro can you please give me the name or a link to that one I really would like to have one of those thank you

      Thanks for watching - It is called Precission Pak www.precision-pak.net/itm/778682/107501/FISHING/Storage-Bag/BAG-95390/Precision-Pak-Fish-Storage-Bag-BAG-95390?catspath=80460%7C80487

    Did the rear of your seat come with holders or is that something you added?

    • @RodNPaddle
      @RodNPaddle  5 років тому +1

      Thanks for watching, and asking the question. The answer is No, it did not. The holder is part of Wildy's mesh storage solutions range, and can be sourced from any Wilderness dealer. I have attached a link to my video on those accessories ua-cam.com/video/UKKjOVeCVb4/v-deo.html

    • @RodNPaddle
      @RodNPaddle  6 років тому +1

      Hi Rob, appreciate that you watched the video, to answer your question, they are called a Bungee Tie Down, Wilderness Systems have them available, or you can go to your local Walmart, or Hardware - commonly they are used to attach tarps to tray backs and trailers. Here is a link to Walmart (I assume you are US located) www.walmart.com/ip/12-Stretch-Cords-Ball-6-Elastic-Bungee-Strap-Tarp-Tie-Down-Bungy-Canopy-Cord/123709831

    Looks much more useful than the insanely overpriced blackpack from yakattack.

    What organizer do you have on the back of the seat ?

    • @RodNPaddle
      @RodNPaddle  6 років тому +1

      weedsnager thanks for watching the video. The mesh pockets on the back of the seat are manufactured by wilderness systems. I have another video explaining to options they have in that range. Check it out.

      Good pick up, they are. but the krate also takes the 37's.
