    Would scruffing it a bit with fine sandpaper help it hold better?

      I’m sure that would help, good suggestion. Since this project I have fished with it several times with no issue. I used alcohol rub then applied some spray adhesive. The heat gun also was key in forming it to the yak. Thanks for checking out the vid!

    Looks good 👍. 8 don't understand why Old Town didn't put the padding in the tank well just to damping the sound from crate noise. Thanks for sharing 💯🤝

      Appreciate it! That’s a good point on the sound. I didn’t talk about that, but it definitely helped with the sound. I also put some padding under my seat riser, worked out good. My crate legs were starting to make indents in the yak, now sitting on padding as well. I did fish with it several times and it made a big difference standing more forward in the cabin. Thanks for watching.

    Looks great! You should transfer those templates to cardboard and sell them.

      Thanks! Not a bad idea, have to put some thought into it I did get to fish with it a few times and definitely helped while standing.

      Who knows, I wish they would. If you pick a non pattern mat this project will go much easier. Thanks for checking out the vid.
