On the subject of bungies to facilitate paddle float re-entries. The best re-entry fastening I ever used was on my Feathercraft K-1 folder. A piece of webbing ran from just behind the cockpit and along the mid-length of the boat for about the width of a moderate sized paddle. You jammed the paddle under the webbing as well as under the bungies and it seemed solid as a rock. Any thoughts on how this system could be copied into a new stripper (still being built)? Would it place too much strain on the back deck, be problematic for attachment, look downright ugly or any other drawbacks? Just an idea. Liz
