Knee pain on gunwales

anyone ever have their knees or the sides anyway hurt after a day of baoting due to your knees hitting the gunwales I’d guess also using them for balance? wondering if there is a product to help with this or is it just me?

Some foam (minicell is good) either on the inside of the gunwales or just below the gunwales, but thick enough that it sticks into the boat past the gunwales, works pretty well.

I’ve rigged mine with…
some kids swimming pool noodles, cut into 18 inch lengths, and sliced half-way through length wise. I used an electric fillet knife to do the cutting. This allows the noodle to be snapped or placed on the gunwale right at the knee’s. An added advantage is a convenient place to temporarily hang my lures.
