In Response To: S&G: Deck hieghts? (Kudzu)

I am 6'4" with relatively very long legs. Cockpit depth=31", width=14.5", height front=13", height rear=10", backband/coaming about 3". I can't get in butt first like Duane and Bryan can, something to consider. Other than that it's quite comfortable even though I have to get in one knee at a time with my stelts. The hip plates go straight down from the coaming, 14.5" apart which leaves less than 0.5" for skin and fat.
