: it gets back to raising the COG another inch or
: so. Would it hurt????

Depends on the boat and how stable it is to start with. I have one that a 1/2" makes is very unstable. I am going to take my Curlew design and and add a 1" thick pad under the seat and see what happens with it.

I have a couple of ideas on keeping the floors low. Just wanted to pick everyone's brain first.
