: Lee, on the subject of positioning: I was planning on building my seat first,
: assuming the position, and marking the centerpoint of placement. Any
: caveats, leg position during measurement, etc., to get close the first
: time? I'm an inexperienced paddler and rental kayaks never fit me for
: beans, so this will be my first snug fitting ride - what seems right now
: may not seem so later.
