Installing risers & stations







The risers install on the blocks with bolts, washers & wing nuts. I must brag on Joe of Redfish Kayaks a bit on how he prepares his kits, along with centerlines on the risers which make them easy to align. He is also just an email or phone call away. The detail of the preparation of the kit enables a newcomer to kayak building like me to move ahead much easier than starting from scratch. Thanks Joe. The stations attach to the risers with bolts and wing nuts as well so the whole hull can eventually be removed from the risers and strongback in order to work on the deck.
