: If you've let a long legged friend try the boat, and you forgot to

Move them with your feet. Takes a little bit of practice :)

Most of my kayaks decks arn't flat enough to put a Beckson hatch on them, gotta be perfectly flat or they don't seal well. Have put in hundreds of them over the years. I certainly don't have anything against them.
