Strip: Double to Triple

Looking to build a triple for trips and playing. Both paddlers are pretty good kayakers with plenty of open water experience. I haven't found much for triple plans and will need to convert a double. I originally looked at a Laughing Loon Twin Star but would like to use one of Nick’s boats. I’m leaning toward a fast double but I’m not sure how much footroom there is. The guy in the backseat has a size 12-13 paddling boot. Is there room enough for his big feet?

Any other suggestions? The boat will be used for day and week-long trips. Both paddlers are experienced and want a fast boat.
