received my plans for the 14'Great Auk. i am now in the process of planning out the cockpit size .i want it to be large enough to enter and exit easily. i have seen on some plastic production kayaks that they have oversized cockpit areas. i like this idea but i have a question on knee bracing and the impotance of them. has anyone any ideas ?
