I also am getting ready to finish off a Spring Run. I want adjustable braces, even though I will probably be the one using it most. The plan in Nick's book worked well in a double, so I'll probably use it. I might beef up the track a little differently though. I wasnt going to do wood bulkheads, in favor of the simplicity of foam. I'm shooting for a launch at the Port Townsend rendesvous, but cant confirm that yet... Shy varnish and some fitting out, probably.

: I'm thinking about what type of footbraces I want for my Spring Run. I have
: large(size 13)feet so I don't want waste any space.

: I'm thinking of using a wood-stripped bulkhead as the main support and
: inserting minicell foam to adjust the fit. I think this is probably the
: simplest way of making footbraces.

: I've heard the concerns about wooden bulkheads. Do any of you have any
: experience with this type of footbrace?
