: Jeff and Bill,

: Sorry, I misplaced the earlier message, replying to Bill instead of
: Jeff.

: I do have a question for Bill though: did you use the Sea Ranger LC
: or ST plans to set up your larger cockpit? I am thinking it
: would be nice to be able to re-use my skirt and especially
: tuilik that fit my other boat...

: Normand

I just copied the shape of a production kayak's cockpit and used that shape. Traced it at the local dealer's place actually :)

It's your boat, you can make the cockpit whatever shape you like.
