Outback Storage - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

SHRED · 08-14-2017, 08:34 AM

I've got a new Camo. I've read the manual about proper storage. I get that weight needs to be distributed to avoid hull deformation.
Here's my idea and tell me if you think it will be okay.
One thick plywood 4x8 ripped down the middle to make two 2x8 pieces.
I'll stack those for even more rigidity then on to sawhorses. I will use about 5 feet of thick pool noodle in each hull channel to distribute the weight as the kayak sits upright. It will be indoors in my garage.

Whay do you think?

if you have a long enough wall...

padded 1/2 conduit and a pipe bender to shape to your hull. Pad with a pool noodle and your good.
