In Response To: Review: Looking for Trouble (Rob Macks/Laughing Loon CC&K)

I had one on my first boat, a wood hybrid and I used it a good bit. I made a simple bungee cord latch that once I got the feel for I could open and close no problem. As I matured as a paddler I carry less and and less with me. Since my boats are now SOF there is not really a place for one and I don't miss it. About all I carry is water which is either on deck or in my lap. Waterproof binoculars go under the bungee's.

BUT, it doesn't matter what we think! If you clients want it, offer it. It's their money. ;-)
