How did you decide where to place the cockpit? Putz 's book says to eyeball it, but that seems to forego any formulaic system. I took my walrus off the frames and sat inside of it to try to see where the cockpit should go. My dad looked at me sitting in the boat and neither of us could figure out the exact placement.
