In Response To: Strip: Need some advice about a wooden Kayak cockpit (Warren Hart)

Hi,

One item not mentioned is that you need to be careful that your new opening is not dramatically shorter than the original one you used to mark the kayak. If it was, it could limit the position of your seat in a way that could move your center of gravity too far forward.

Good luck with your project,

Best regards,

Allan Edie
