: You must be 6' + to need more foot room. I'm 5' 10" and my size 10s fit,
: with shoe soles.

: That's the trouble with adapting a kayak meant for a 5 foot tall Inuit.

: Maybe, I need to ask people how tall they are when they buy DB plans from me.

: I could easily provide a longer spacing between stations to accommodate long
: legs.

: Rob

I think you should ask the size of the buyer. I'm 5'9", 155#, size 9 shoe and the kayak fits like a glove. It's a great boat! Very close to SOF Greenland replicas that I have paddled.
