Thanks William you saved me money and time in building mine. Yea it may take some effort in getting it in place but I think it is doable without the saw horse. My yak had to be a little narrower from scupper to scupper. I just took a little bit off maybe a quarter of an inch. I got a perfect fit though and glued most of it together. It fits perfect behind the seat an is low profile.

Next video: How to repair broken scupper holes...That's going to put too much strain in the scupper holes especially if you are going over rough terrain and with a loaded kayak. I want to see it in use and want an update now that 2 years have passes in Dec 2020.

DO NOT RAISE YOUR SEAT IN KAYAKS LESS THAN 30" WIDE! I see the video is from 3 years ago. That kayak is too small for you and if it didn't happen (yet) a small wake from a boat hitting you from the side will roll you because you're way too high in that yak for your size... I was on a 13 ft yak and not that high and was rolled by a tiny wake that cost me over $1000 in equipment and electronics.

Actually it doesn't cost as much and it stores perfectly in the same holes on top of the yak. I did have to file the scupper holes a little and shorten the horizontal pieces and it fits like a glove 😁

Got one of these and the pvc will break eventually. Also removing the wheel after it’s in the water is a pain. Best way is buy a $30 kayak wheel from amazon or eBay, don’t waste your time building this.

ok made one and my wheels barely roll given the lock nuts and washers you suggested. I am assuming that I have tightened them too tight. any suggestions other than making them looser.
@gtrevino505 жыл бұрын
I wouldn't use the lock washers because as you found out, you can't fully tighten the nuts to flatten the lock washers without making the axle too tight. The wheels aren't under a lot of stress, so I think plain washers are fine. If the nuts loosen up you can just tighten a bit each use. I'm actually going to try a nylon lock nut on the outside and see if that does the job of keeping everything in place.
@traviswhitworth65065 жыл бұрын
Ditch the lock washers. Some blue locktite for the nuts should keep them on but still allow you to remove them later if needed.

@williammorales79246 жыл бұрын
Grizzled Old Dude theres always a possibility of wear and tear around the Scupper plug area that's why I chose the size PVC that I did it fits in their more snug there's no play in it. Therefore less possibility of wearing that area out.
@Manuel_Z_Kayaks4 жыл бұрын
@@williammorales7924 It's not the hole that leaks...its where the hole meets the hull that cracks.. you might have used a 4 way cross to add support lengthwise with the yak to avoid straining the scuppers.
