Anyway, I'm getting a "Phython" lock cable for my kayak. That would
make it pretty safe, but when I get my next great toy (a tandem,
possibly a Hobie), I will work on a chain that it would make it so
NOISY that cutting it would wake half the neighbors... And I hope that
they can sleep well.


Oxyacetylene cutting torches are not noisy, and can cut any steel
made, no matter how hard or tough.


Yeah, I agree. The Python cables are pretty good protection
(PGP? ;-) ) I have one for my bicycle, and I use it! :-)


John Kuthe...


But how do you connect a cable to a kayak in a solid way?


I'm trying to figure it out. U-locks are considered the only safe way
for bikes.
