Warren; The black blocks in the center of the rack is nothing more then small foam blocks that you can get at any kayak or canoe store. I bought this one and just cut it in half. They come with the slots for attaching to any type of rack. Also what is not shown in the photos is the foam cradle...

Warren; The tee is cut on the bottom horizontal part of the tee that is running parallel with the handrail on the boat ( you can't see the cut in the photo) I just used my band saw and removed about 1/4" or so of the tee, or until it would snap on. If you looked at a cross section of the tee it...

I was thinking about that myself, I was going to use some of that spray-in insulation foam by drilling some very small holes in random spots and just spray it in , the stuff I have seen has a little tube on the end of the nozzle like a can of WD-40. But once I started using it, and had the...

Hi Rick from Maine ! I think the PVC is 1.5 or 1.25 I don't remember, It stuff that I had laying around. The TEE is indeed cut horizontal. I also cut some pieces of garden hose to put over the rail on the boat, then I just kinda pried it open and it snapped right on. I remember it was a very...

I just bought some of those canisters that are shown in the picture above at "Big 5 Sporting Goods" for a $1.99 ea. They only had 6 so I bought them all. I guess I didn't know that I got such a deal ! Big Dave. Raven Dancer.

Here is what I do once a year to Raven Dancers water tank. Attach a length of plastic tube over the end of your faucet, pitch the other end out the window about 6' ~ 8' of tubing is fine. Now give a couple of pumps on the foot pump and the water from the tank will start to sipion out on its...

I made a very simple rack out of some PVC and ss hose clamps I had laying. The only thing I had to buy way the foam cradle that hooks onto the rack which the kayaks rest in. I put to small foam blocks under the racks for added support. So far so good. PICS in my album. Big Dave. Raven Dancer.

Ruthi & I spent the night in Langley March 30, 2009 in Raven Dancer on our way to Oak Harbor Marina via Port Townsend. When we arrived the power was out and no one seemed to know why or care, about an hour later some one checked the main box and found the switch in the off position. After that...

Even with racks I wonder what the distributed load limit would be for a 22' cruiser with a high top. I have built a set of racks and the load is transfered to the factory installed hand rails. I have had big crab traps, kayaks, trap pullers, fishing poles, lead core line, chairs, and other...

Tom, like I said all my prawn fishing has been in B.C. in the Broughtons :thup I have been reading the rules for WA. and it looks like I need to pick up a trap made for WA. waters and a yellow bouy. Sorry I can't help out more with waters down south. Big Dave. Raven Dancer.

Wow, thank you very much for all the information Tom ! I will give the spots a try this May. All I need to do now is check and see what the regulations are for trap mesh for the state of Washington, my traps are B.C. traps. It also looks like Washington wants you to use yellow floats. I do use a...
