I have tried searching the archives without success. I have rope carry handles on my two existing wooden kayaks. I am building a third, a Hybrid Night Heron, and cannot remember how long a piece of line I need for the double fisherman's knot style of handle. I know, if I weren't lazy, I would untie and measure one.
On a side note, my wife asks why I am building a third, since we can only use two at a time. I'll bet the group can come up with some good responses.
Thanks, John
