Recently purchased a Kayak Deck Bungee Kit from a UK company called Swindon Watersports and in this video I show how I fitted the pad eyes, which were part of the kit, to my Winner Purity 1 sit on kayak, using well nuts...

Easy solution to the screw points sticking through the bulkhead. Use small wooden backing blocks to drive the screws into once they pass through the hull. This not only burrows the screw points it provides a much stronger fastening point as it spreads the stress over a larger section of hull material. Of course this technique can only be used on sections of hull that can be accessed for placement of the wood backing block.

Great feedback, thank you so much, really appreciate it...

Drill in reverse and apply downward pressure on plastics. Doesn’t bite for those that fear cracking delicate parts. If delicate or rigid hard plastics, drill through masking tape. Nice video, thank you.

[@JesterBushcraft]

Great feedback and a very useful tip, thank you. Your comments are much appreciated 👍

[@novato200]

Thank you Sr. I didn't know how to install my trolley system with this type of well nuts. It came without instruction👍

[@fabiojardimbarros9595]

which model is best for kayaking. m4 m5 or m6?

[@kamelsharkspy4799]

Hello whats the size of well nuts please ?

[@FattyMateo]

Paddles float, why do we need a leash? 🤔

[@JesterBushcraft]

FattyMateo depends what type of water your paddling on, I agree on a canal a bit pointless, but in faster moving water ???

[@johnstarkie9948]

They float away. DAMHIKT

[@roberttom4823]

Jeeez..Get to the point man!

[@BahbahKaduche]

Might want to do a quick search on how well nuts are actually installed that's not correct sir

[@JesterBushcraft]

Im sorry, I dont see how I have installed them incorrectly. Maybe you can enlighten me...

[@mickydavies]

yes- i would also like to know

[@ch33kz]

I didn't see anything wrong with the installation process either. Since finding out about well nuts I've seen numerous installation videos and they're all done exactly like this video. Great video by the way 👍.

[@Nozoki]

You gonna tell us how you do it? This seems correct to me.

[@ashtonians]

I install them this way when I cannot access the inside of the kayak. When I can access the inside, I drill a much smaller hole that is approximately the diameter of the screw, then wind the well nut on from the inside. This seems to be much more secure, not sure whether it makes a less watertight seal though. Does anyone else do it this way?

[@caltravels9454]

you can just as easily put on some tape, foam, heat shrink, sipping straw, silicon, cigarette filter or file the tip of the screw dull, you britts really love making a fuss over nothing when a solution is right in front of ya

[@Pavement-Prophets]

Nope! We just like to do the job properly and not bodge it. You’ve obviously not heard the saying “worse things happen at sea”!
