Other Obstacles

Obstacles on the stern surface can also complicate mounting. As an example, the best position for the Ram ball attachments on the stern of the Big Tuna, from Jackson Kayak, is directly over the stern handles. We removed the handle and added an aluminum bar, the same length as the handle. The ball attachment was added directly to the bar. The bar was attached to the stern using the same rivet nuts as were used for the handle.
