Re: trick'in out the KAYAK

Nice man. I would love to see some more pics. I built a leaning post also for my pelican. It was so nice to stand up and have something to hold onto. Did some excellent sightfishing with that thing.

Re: My custom Pelican

The tower was mainly used for leaning on. I wanted something I could grab on to if I needed it.
