I enjoy outfitting my canoe. So I thought I'd share.

1st is just contact cementing in some closed cell foam for your seat. You can use a small propane torch to add a finished edge to where it's been cut to shape. Of course be careful about the cement fumes and flames, and practice on some of the pieces you cut off first, it melts fast.

In the pic you can see how the edge might turn out. Plus it shows some broom handle clips I added under my seat to hold my paddles while I portage.
