: Any problem with a retractable skeg that sits 1" or so off
: center? I can't foresee any problems it would cause.

Hi Jeff,
No really, it has positives for hardshell and SoF kayaks.
Less likelyhood of grit getting in there for both and it's easier to build one into a SoF beside the keel stringer than through it.
