: Hi, I've just placed fore and aft pool noodle flotation in the
: frame. Does anyone know of any problems with this system of
: flotation? Just as well to know before they get skinned in :-)

: Cheers, TomR

Only downside is there is no way to dry the inside of the boat, those will trap moisture in the ends, will eventually grow mildew.
