The Leg: 1,5 " or 4 cm (No, not Rita Hayworth's..) , the diameter I used is
1" outer diam. polyethylene tubing , but I would reduce it now to 20mm.
Cordura has a rough surface and helps the grip.
Haven't tried the boat yet though, to be fully honest, but the grip looks
better than on commercial folder I own (NAutiraid)

Bye , Stefano
