[cool][blue][size 1]Hey DryGuy, I posted the pics awhile back, before TubeBabe got to test the design on the water. Here they are again.[/size][/blue]
[#0000ff][size 1]Basically, I drilled holes in the 4 corners and ran stretch cord across the top and bottom...with carabinier clips on the front and S hooks on the rear. They attach and disconnect quickly, and the board lays on the seat for transport.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]If one were concerned about the fastest possible release, one could use S hooks on both top and bottom. They are held firmly in place on the D rings by the stretch cord, but are easily disconnected.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]As I mentioned, that was originally my idea, and I like her liking it enough that I am going to try a couple more alternate designs. Although, the simplicity and effectiveness of the raised edges and the flat surface is going to be "hard" to improve upon. Can't beat it for a buck at a yard sale.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]By the way, you will notice in the pic of the underside that I used a grinding disc on my drill to take down some of the potentially irritatating plastic ridges. It does not have any points to create discomfort or wear a hole in waders.[/size][/#0000ff]
