Hobie gearkeeper
I am very please with it. It doesn't take up much space. Additionally, it provides a lot of protection and tether length for your stuff. I am going to buy another one. Well, lets see how long it can last the salt.

Hobie gearkeeper
I just picked a new Hobie www.hobiecat.com gearkeeper. I was going to use it ti tether my rescue knife to my PFD. I was surprised that it broke when attaching it to my PFD. For $25, it should have lasted longer. I am going to call Hobie and complain about it.

Still working on my yak...
I used permatex rv sealant. I was told it works. It does and it's cheap. I used it on my padeyes. I am happy in the results.

Finally got the yak back...
I really like my new up/down rudder control. It replaced the original one on my Hobie Revolution (www.hobiecat.com). It goes up so smoothly. I had an anchor trolley put on too. I kept on going back and forth on what side to put it out. The only thing about it is it's permanent. It meant get in my way re-entering the yak. Put on a few other things too. I'll talk about them in my next post.

Still waiting on my yak...
I brought my kayak in for its winter tune-up and some new modifications. It's probably been around 2 months since I heard from the dealer. I am not complaining. But, dreaming and wondering what the dealer is doing with my yak. At least, I don't have to worry about the yak taking room in my shed. I must admit it's easier this year moving around in my shed. But, I do miss my yak........

Good thing for "On the Water"...
Times are tough when you can't fish. We are constantly thinking of new ways to rig the yak and how to cut down the time at the dock. Good thing for "On the Water" TV show. It helps to watch it and dream of being out on the water. It's too bad most of them are repeats...

Anchor Trolley
I am debating what side to put an anchor trolley. I usually put my paddle on the starboard side (left) and fish from the port (right) side. I was wondering about if it's possible to re-enter the yak on the same side of an anchor trolley. i am thinking it's probably doable...
