Hi Gordon, I have Nick's plans for his Night Heron and it shows the location of the cockpit on both pages ,both distance from bow to front of cockpit and stern to to rear of cockpit page two shows cockpit laid out on the forms.hope this is helpful BTW you will also find Bill Hamm to be very much a gentleman with a welth of
knowledge that he shares with every one freely. Good luck with your build and please show us pictures when finished Best Nick R.
