Canoe Modifications

What are some of the basic canoe Mods most people do? Just interested in seeing some creativity.

I have added thwarts, moved seats,
replaced fixed seats with adjustable sliding seats, added foot braces, padded out tractor style seats complete with “cheek” cut outs for comfort, added mini thwarts at the bow for a carry handle and added removable GPS holders to existing thwarts.

Sorta depends on the boat.
Gluing in knee pads was the first mod I ever made. Adding tie-down points to thwarts and inwales was the second.
