Attaching a "Pull Tab" to the Float Bags

Recommended Posts

I'm still a month or so away from needing this, but with the weather the way it is, here goes the Question. 

 

I have the Kudzu Float Bags. And I've installed a loop of Para Cord both Fore and Aft to pull the bags in, advise from an old time Qajaq builder. What's the best way to attach some kind of loop to the bags without compromising the air tight quality of the bags?

Brass grommet in the front flap.... if I left enough of a flap.  If not you can send them to me and I will be glad to add one. you just pay shipping. 

I added grommets at first and very few people put in a 'pull cord' so I dropped them. 

 

I just use a stick (with no sharp edges), fold the end over the stick, fold the bag a little and slide it into the boat through the cockpit. Might take a couple of tries but it is works just fine.
