Here's the Mast Track Box that is going to go into the Hooked SUP. Alex Aguera was nice enough to build up the high Density PVC foam insert around a mast track for me so I wouldn't mess it up. Now I just need to make a router template, a foam deck pad template and find some time to do the work. Of all the things I need to do, cutting a hole into a perfectly good board so I can make a lot of fiberglass dust is going to be one of those that I will easily find an excuse not to do. But it needs to get done so I can sail the big board and then start to troll while sailing. The plastic fittings and rivets are for modifying the igloo cooler I recently got so I can drop my paddle into a secure place to keep it from getting knocked overboard while I am fighting a fish. I cut a 2' section of PVC pipe in roughly half this past weekend, now I just need to drill holes (only two) into a perfectly good cooler to mount the pipe that will function as a cradle. The fittings will hold bungees in place to make sure the paddle doesn't go anywhere while in the cradle. I need to take a dremel to round out the corners so I don't get cut up while messing around the mounted pipe. This second project will take way less time than the first. Guess which one will get done first?
