Build A Kayak Work Stand Using PVC Pipe and Nylon Straps
If you own one or more kayaks, eventually you’ll need to do some cleaning and maintenance. I’ve found it’s a lot easier to work on my kayaks if they’re at chest height. So, a work stand becomes a useful kayak accessory. These are design notes and step-by-step instructions for building a kayak work stand using PVC pipe and nylon straps. The stand will handle kayaks weighting up 47 pounds, and support inflatables up to 13 feet long. Assembly takes about two hours.
Sea Eagle 330 and 370 Skeg Guard
Protect the skegs on these great inflatable oats from permanenetly bending over while in storage. Here is an improved skeg guard that you can make in about two hours with some corrogated cardboard and white glue. It will keep the skegs on the Sea Eagle 330 and 37 inflatable kayaks straight while in storage, which improves tracking while the boat is in use.
Review: Sea Eagle 370 Inflatable Kayak
Sea Eagle brand inflatable kayaks are among the most popular recreational kayaks in America. I’ve owned a Sea Eagle model 370 sports kayak for ten years and decided it’s time I post a review. The model 370 is essentially the same as the model 330. I have also owned a 330, and although this review is on the 370, most of what I write also applies to the 330.

Kayak Light Mask That Mounts In A Fishing Rod Holder
My latest kayaking hack is a simple mast made of PVC piping, used to hold a safety light for nighttime kayaking. It mounts in your kayak's fishing rod holder so you don't need to drill mounting holes. This mast can be assembled in about one hour and costs less than $30. It can also be rigged to show a flag for increased visibility during daytime paddling.
