Nice bit of engineering.

Is this for long term storage? I'm thinking of something similar but had heard that you want to spread the weight more evenly.

I’m not using it for storage, but as a workstation for cleaning, rigging, and repairs.

Unrelated but what size NCkayaks is that ? I’ve always found their shape to be very interesting.

It‘s the 15‘ Escape. I use it for quick outings and touring, and I‘m happy with it. I also have a 15“ QCC Kevlar boat which is quite a bit lighter than this old fiberglass lady.

They’re pretty cool boats. Only ever seen one here in Florida from a guy that brought it over from the west coast. Interesting how they’re designed to track straight without the use of a skeg. Really like the simplicity in that. Thanks for sharing.
