Having a back ground in design for many years most certainly does not make me jealous of another persons achievements Swfinatic, Redheadedsinger has a well thought install but it still can be installed in a easier fashion as the manufacturer intended so if you are stepping up to defend Redheadedsinger my friend you are way off base with your comments, I have in no way intended to cast aspersions on the achievement of her installation method but just letting others know that there is another way without over engineering it. It is also worth noting my friend that the install was carried out on two different model Hobies (ie Sport & Revolution ) so if you are intent on being offended by my comments I apologise for my transgression.
There was no other way to install both on my Sport. The Sport is less than 10 feet long, but yet wider than a Revo. There is only one place on the Sport that the Boonedox could be installed due to the mold of the kayak, and as they dont make a kit for the Sport, I had to use the Outback kit, and modify that. That is also the only place on the kayak that the Sidekicks could go, without interfering with the Boondox. There was simply no other option, and they could not be installed as the manufacturer intended. I hardly think its over engineered, but rather a brilliant and easy fix to a space problem on a little kayak. I would love to hear your method of installation on my Sport.
