That's what I'd like to know : is a "standard" cockpit a 16" X 30" eggshape, or ...?? I understand there is any room to make a change for a bigger paddler and go custom, but I too would like a "good - standard" size that would be redily available. In my case I would like to go toward the smaller standard :-) I am looking around at goos supply houses and will post what I find about this.
