I have them mounted down in the "chines" in my Guillemot. Love 'em for holding a pump, water bottle, or thermos.

1/2"w x 1"h x 16" or 20"l maple--salvaged from an old pallet.

shawn

: I was thinking about this for a couple of days. Why not epoxy two 1"w X
: 3/4"t X ?"l strips of wood along the length of the storage
: compartment wall? One on each side with notches cut into them for bungies
: to pass through? Make them long enough to go deep enough into the ends of
: the yak so that gear can be lashed to them. You can even put ropes/pulleys
: at the far ends so that gear can be "towed" into the compartment
: and out again.

: Kind of like 2 long notched rails. Only issue I can see is: Would the rails
: make the yak too unflexible if it hits something in the water?
