> Have you considered building a double with one cockpit located

Gentlemen,

I've been toying with that very idea since I launched my Cape Charles 18. Being 6' 2", & 230lbs, with size 12 feet, it is just a bit cramped. I have the most problem with my feet. I could use about an inch more under the deck.

I could also use a bigger cockpit opening, and had I known this prior to building, I would have adjusted accordingly. I'm 40 years old and not quite as flexible as I used-ta-was.

I sure wish I'd had a computer, and been on-line when I built. There is so much info and advice out here, it would have helped tremendously.

See ya's,

Rick
