John,

Thanks again for the step forward (leap off the cliff?)
I have a brother in law who personally does not like to have his legs inside the boat.
I really want to build him a stripper, but wanted to modify a stripper for his legs to be outside.
The idea comes from him draping his legs outside a boat like yours - looked really goofey.

However you may have enticed me off my own little cliff. Possibly I could expand your cuts into something for his legs to fit on. Sort of like treating the kayak like a saddle.
Still don't have it pictured in my head.
