making the fatyak kaafu fishy pt2 here are some pictures of the latest modifications on the kaafu. scotty flush mount with blocked end this allows me to use any of the scotty rod mounts but with the inside end of the mount caped no water can enter the hull carefully measured and drilled ready for the mount the mount with bottom cap all bolted in using a small amount of silicone to add the the waterproofness of the fitting 2 additional bungee cords for tucking in my knofe and tools when fishing so they are at hand yet safely stored an anchor trolly all the bits for the anchor trolly are from neil at h20 .the addition of a small pad eye to mount the rear roller . using a simple bunge loop to mount the front roller front mount roller simply wraped and fasterned arount the front carry handle rear roller tucked away and ready for use large anchor line clip attached and transport hook installed all ready to go an additional elastic bunge at the front of the kayak.i like to tuck the paddle blade under this while drift fishing it allows me to get vey quick access to the paddle should i need to use it
