: Thanks ! I do have (and read) Nick's book, but it's always helpful
: to see a picture of the actual piece.

: My only concern is that I've always used the more traditional side
: footpegs, and I am wondering how this design feels (I guess the
: easiest way to figure it out would be to build it...). Does
: anybody have some experience with them that they would like to
: share ?

It's really just a bulkhead, an adjustable one, but still a bulkhead, should be comfy. Most race boats like a K1 use them, many old WW boats did too.
