Waterproof Storage Compartments
Protecting your gear while on the water demands attention to detail in every joint and seal.
Waterproofing Techniques
- Apply marine-grade epoxy to all interior seams before installing the lid.
- Use silicone gaskets to create a tight seal when the compartment is closed.
- Consider adding a layer of foam insulation to dampen vibrations from the hull.
Box Dimensions
- Measure standard scull oars to ensure a snug fit without forcing them in.
- Leave a small gap for expansion due to temperature changes.
- Install recessed handles to prevent snagging on the gunwales during transport.
Properly sealed compartments keep your equipment dry and ready for the next race.
