In this video, we are going to show you how to rebuild your keel if you have created a hole from dragging the back of the kayak across the ground. These holes can look pretty nasty, but with a few tools from the local hardware store and some extra plastic, you can easily complete the rebuild process in 1-2 hours on your own.




To start, there are going to be a few things you need:


- Sandpaper - 120, 220 and 320 grit (or similar grits)


- Cutters or Dikes


- A large & a small set of needle nose pliers


- Steel brush or drill with steel brush attachment


- Rasp & File


- Assorted sizes of Acrylic screwdrivers


- A long skinny metal probe (long flat-head screwdriver works)


- Heat-Gun


- Scrap Plastic


- Cup for water




Most of these items can be found fairly easily. If you need help sourcing some scrap plastic for your repair, contact one of our shops!
