Numb Feet

Hello to all. I just finished building 2 CLC Patuxent 17.5 kayaks for my wife and I early this summer. We love them, but are having trouble with numb feet. No matter where we set the footpegs, we each get numb feet after about 20 mins. of paddling. We are sitting on 'Happy Bottom' foam seats from CLC. We have tryed putting pads under our knees to support our legs and that helps my wife with her leg fatigue...but our feet are still getting numb. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steve
