In Response To: Strip: Question for Night Heron Builders (Wes Ostertag)

: Hi-
: I'm about to start building a Night Heron - I'm looking for comments from
: anyone who has built it with the low front deck/normal rear deck option.
: How did it turn out? It strikes me that using this combination of decks
: might avoid some of the bending problems near the cockpit I read about in
: earlier posts. My feet are size 9 so I don't think that'll be a problem.

: Thanks.
: Wes

Check with Nick, but I'll bet he sez to go low/low for your size. Better rolling.
