I would go with water proof rivets.

What makes these rivets waterproof?

@@CrazyCranker A bit late, but in case you never found the answer, these rivets have a rubber gasket at the head. They are also aluminum (no rust). So these are perfect for watercraft applications like this.

No, if you use a screw without drilling a hole it will be waterproof.

Thank you!

Thanks man! Let me know how it goes!

Thanks buddy!

We can definitely still break out the kayaks!

Man it’s been along time since I’ve gotten the kayak out haha

Thanks man, it's gonna be nice to be able to get the gopro off my head and on the kayak when I bring it out. Glad you found it helpful!

That is a great idea. I used the double sided tape cause it was handy and to play around with different mounting positions before I settled on one. If you don't have the tape then that method would work very well. Awesome feedback

I considered the Slayer as well! I ended up selling the 106 to start a tinyboat build.

Nice man, have fun with it!

Thanks man! I appreciate the kind words.

Thank you sir!

That is a great idea! Moving forward I will do just that in any suitable application!

Thanks! We will see how they hold!

Yay indeed! 1k here we come!

Thanks buddy!

Thanks Mark! Being quite the craftsman yourself I hope it was up to your standards!

Time will tell. So far I am very pleased with the results. Thanks for your feedback!

I'm glad you found it useful man!

Never ended up making it I'm afraid. I should have though! Glad you found this video useful though

@@TimHaunFishing glad I’m not going crazy! 🤗 (I looked for it on your playlist!)I’m just looking to secure a go pro to the deck of my yak. Should be easily done. Thanks again!

Honestly YakAttack and Yakgadget make fantastic products.

Hey, on the strength of your recommendation, I just drilled 10 holes in my kayak….to mount a gear track! I love it! This was the best way! Rock solid installation. Looks good. Better video quality with it not bobbing around on my head. I wanted to find this conversation to come back to say thank you again!!

Thank you very much!

I unfortunately had to sell mine. However; that does not mean I didn't love it. I'll say this; at 280lbs it was astonishingly stable. I was too heavy yo stand in it. I made the nose too heavy when I stood. But otherwise unbelievably stable. However; the trade off there is it handled like an oil tanker lol. It was a bit clumsy to get moving and turn. But as I fish moatly small lakes and ponds and fish rather slow, this was never a problem for me. Lastly, the seat was incredibly comfortable. I just wish it had sat up just a tiny bit higher so I could easily slide a 3700 box in and out. Overall if I bought another one I would not be disappointed. But if I had the means to transport it I'd probably go for a 12 to be a little less susceptible to wind and be able to stand up and fish.

I had to track down one leaky rivet, didn't get a good seal with the marine silicone. After I fixed that, tight and SOLID

I eventually sold the kayak but they remained solid and leak proof the entirety of my ownership. Thanks for watching!

@@TimHaunFishing thanks for the info, much appreciated

Anything will work if you're determined enough🤣🫡

Project dayyyy! There the best.
