Shawn,

Thanks for the info!

: How wide are your hips? Do you need padding to fit in a 16" wide
: coaming?

Nah! They are about 17 inches. The blocks will pull the tissues in closer to the bones.

: A 21" wide boat isn't that wide. I can balance brace my VCP Avocet with
: ease...Greg balance braces his VCP Anas Acuta easily...both have a
: "cheekplate" that connects the seat to the coaming...both also
: have low coamings. It's not so much the cheekplate that might cause you
: difficulty, but any padding you add to it that might.

OK. I will attempt to make the rim of the coaming as low as possible for this one. We'll see what happens.

: At any rate, you can always cut a cheekplate out, too.

Oh, yeah, and then glass it back in.

Thanks again!
