Kalub,
That retractable anchor rope is the only way to go. If I do another, I'll just use the cable that comes with it. I took mine apart and used rope, but I think that plastic coated stuff would work just as well.

Man that dry hatch is not joking around on those things are they! It looks like the perfect kayak for overnighters.

Trout Bum-
I love storage but I'm kinda confused...do you store your gear on the racks you built?
Does that not get top heavy?
All though the Native is a badace yak, I'm just curious about how your gonna pull that off?

I'm not being a smartace I'm really just wondering. cheers

stick slinger, you may be right. i'm waiting for the water to warm up, before i try it. i plan on only storing light items, on on it, like my rollout bag, and sleeping pad. maybe a small chair. will let you know after i try it, or flip over. hoping for the best. i think it will be ok, cause the boats are well designed with the tunnel hull. will check back!!

Malibu X-Factor. Perfect "big man" kayak. Tons of storage, and still floats my big arse.
