In Response To: 2 dimensional compound angles for floors of kayak (Violet Cloutier)

Here’s an image to illustrate how high the floor ends up. Like Mike said, Keep the floor low. Every 1/4” counts when it comes to center of gravity. The dropped flooring at the top of the picture is for my big feet. The flooring is 1 ½ “ up from the bottom of the kayak where my seat is placed.
