: I remember seeing a picture of what you might like on the 'net some
: time ago. It was of a double in which the cockpits had been
: spaced further apart. This looked like it was done without
: stretching the whole boat, making turning, carrying and loading
: on car or trailer no more difficult than a normal double.

: I'm sure the extra spacing between cockpits helped to alleviate the
: paddle clacking "divorce boat syndrome", but it also
: allowed them to incorporate a large hatch between cockpits. It
: was wider than usual and about two feet long. This allowed them
: to carry more gear if they wanted, but, as pictured, leaving the
: cover off left a command center for the captain, a large black
: lab. All three looked like they were having a great time.

Actually I think it's a pix of a Pygmy kit kayak. I'd rather do it from plans.
