Thanks for the reply, David. I probably should have mentioned that coming from a whitewater background, I can't imagine not being securely melded with the boat. I'll have foot, hip and knee/thigh contact.

My fit concerns are primarily two: Given a bent leg seating and my leg length, would the low front deck be too low? Given my weight, which back deck height would result in, oh, say 2" above dead flat water? With a little day trip gear only; no need for a dutch oven and lawn chair with this boat!

Cheers, Keith
