Another one for the 19 Outback!!! :smt003
Got mine 10/19 so I have the single gasket. As the pics show this is my easy fix for the water issue, just clamps down harder and never seem to see Water inside!
Being tall 6’4” I was getting alot of water over the bow too.
I kind of redesigned how the seat attaches and moved it back 8”.
That helped my kayak “fit” me better and cured the water over the bow!
A bit heavy but so nice OTW!!!

brilliant fix, I was thinking about getting into the bungies and tightening them but this is way smarter
