: I'm trying to figure out what to do for my kayak's foot pegs
: (yost-style SOF). I finally got it off of the strongback last
: night and sat in it! I've been on the fence with what to do for
: foot braces/pegs. I noticed last night that the bow float bag
: runs right up to where my feet would go.

: Does anyone see anything against using that as my foot rest?

: I'm wondering about wear + tear on the clear plastic vinyl bag
: (pushing would cause it to rub the frame).

: Thoughts? Opinions? Witty commentary?

Hi Doug,

Oh yeah btw, a really easy way to minimize the wear on the float bag is to drape a towel over it, your feet will then have a nice soft thing to push against. Downside is you need to reach up inside to retrieve the towel at the end of the paddling session or it'll get kinda stinky up there :)

Or..you could just add a wear layer to the back side of the float bag when you're making it, 2nd. layer of vinyl should work I'd think, towel is easier.
