Re-purposed cargo net

I got the yellow-black shock by disassembling a cargo net from Urban Ore, and used it to replace the old black cord aft of the kayak's rear hatch.

The cord on the upper left of the photo was facing down, so it still has some color.

 The stopper knots make it easier to shove the end of a paddle under the cord, and easier to adjust cord's tension, and less of a hassle to remove the cord altogether if I want to use it for something else.

After a couple of years of use the color has faded almost to white, and it's getting a bit scruffy, but it's still stretchy and useable.
