I am the owner of a new Wenonah Escape in ultralight construction.
Among other things , this means it has tubular aluminum thwarts. On my other boats I ran shock cord through the wooden thwarts to hold little stuff like maps in place.
I’m a little iffy on the idea of drilling holes in the aluminum thwarts, and the aluminum would probably wear on the shock cord pretty quickly.
How does everyone else deal with this? Thanks in advance.
Pete
