Storing your mirage drive - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

inbx3 · 01-15-2012, 09:59 PM

Just got an Outback and was wondering how does everyone store their mirage drive. I've got the kayak on a rack upside down so I can't keep it in the kayak. Can I lay it down without fear of warping the fins or do I hang them from the pedals so they don't warp?

You can store it either way. I put mine on a shelf, not laying down, but on edge so the fins are off the shelf.

I made a couple loops of old electrical cord and attached them to my garage door rails. (I never open that garage bay.) I slide the loops over the peddles and the drive hangs safely out of the way.

I think you can just lay it on the ground.
