  • See our Tahoma kayak seat mod. We raised the seat allowing storage underneath and also making it easier to stand up.

    I give you credit, most you tubers would edit that out. By leaving it in, it acts like a public service ad and shows us you're legit. Thank you for your honesty.

    I know this is old but thanks for the laugh. I see many stadium chair mods but all I do is put a portable square float cushion down with scupper plugs in just the rear holes. The plastic seat clips will wear out but there are aluminum upgrades that won't.

    Extend out the length of your outrigger another 12 inches. The wider span will make it more stable.

  • @smilergrogan2361
    @smilergrogan2361 3 роки тому +2

    please look up what center of gravity is. by building your heavy wooden chair so high, you raised the center of gravity by a lot. now all the weight; you and all that wood are well above the water line. more weight than your very narrow and light craft needs.

    • @attechoutdoors5893

      Yes Sir, with the outriggers it’s easy to stand but you do need to be aware that you can flip it. Thanks for watching. I would not stand in this kayak without the outriggers. Maybe some day we will get bigger ones. The stand-up kind. Longer and a little more width. Thanks

      This stuff is on 90 % of the ponds in our area carried by ducks. I got rid of it once, but came back a year latter. It’s called duck weed, and is good for gardens, it’s full of nitrogen. This stuff grows 25% a day once it starts. God bless have a great week.

      I had that on my pond and 2 things worked real good on it, one was expensive the other cheap. Cheap is get some Blue Tilapia fish they love to eat it and then you'll love to eat the fish. The other was a chemical that's fish safe, sonar was the brand name and a small bottle was expensive but it did wipe out the duckweed.

      Pulling the pin flipped me when the outrigger flipped to the top of the water. But it’s not bad with the outriggers down in the water. We will do a test latter to see how much it takes to flip it,,,, son-in-law not me. Lol
