: ...toggles and cords are far superior to bungees. I use them on all of my
: boats, including my fiberglass boats. A properly rigged deck makes it very
: quick and easy to stow and retrieve a paddle, secure a chart and other
: common tasks. I often do put one strand of bungee across the deck in front
: of the cord/slider rigging, so I can stash somewhat bulky but lightweight
: items like gloves or a hood. I'm a firm believer in clear decks and never
: carry a pump or paddle float on them, so that's all the bungee I will ever
: need. You can see examples of my deck rigging in several of my Webshots
: albums at the link below.

Too cool: the photos make everything clear. Thanks for posting, and thanks to all for the replies. I have a lot to study now!
