Hi All-
Thanks for your replies. I think we have enough good info to proceed with this.

: Hi Jack
: Glen has it right but centre of balance while sitting is probably the best. I
: guess you could find this by each of you sitting on a board with dowel
: roller underneath on a smooth floor and moving back and forth till the board
: tilts. Mark on the floor where the dowel is and using a square to align
: with your back measure the distance between the square and the mark. Use
: this distance in the calulation to position the rear of each cockpit. If
: you need to increase the distance between cockpits will youll need to be
: half the additional length required added to the distance of each body COG
: from the COG of the kayak.
