Renegade foot bar mods

[flygoddess]

My experience with the foot bar is as TD pointed out, not needed and I have gone out many times without, BUT, it is very important when it comes to rowing. Not all the time. On calm water or slight breeze, I rest my heels on the bar. Enough to get my feet out of the water.
But, there has been times that a storm moved in and it was hard core rowing. I swore I was going to bend the bar and some have.
I do have my reservations on PVC in these cases, but for normal use, I are fine.

Before I got TD's foot pegs, I opted to not use the bar that comes with the boats these days and use NFO's older version. It is a pipe with two S carabiners.

Here, links of chain was added to the pipe as both my Hubby and myself have 36" inseams.





The carabiners make for quick easy connects and disconnects. While on the lake I would unclip mine and the bar reached the seat area, where it would rest till I needed it.

Once again. Tube Dudes foot pegs are awesome though and I have enjoyed them the couple of times I have tried them since.
I will try to get a shot next trip, although they are now BLACK...LOL
