The Spray Skirt Problem - Fixed!

After lots of great suggestions from viewers, and a conversation with Delta Kayaks, I sort of stumbled onto a fix. It was something that was noticed/suggested by a viewer. On a lark I added one little thing to my tests. This seems to be a problem with the slippery nature of thermoformed plastic. I also noticed that when I was paddling in Alaska I noticed how rough the underside of the cockpit coaming (on a fiberglass boat) is. That plays into it.
