Sounds good, thanks.

Like I mentioned I'm amusingly assembled... roughly 5'8 with 28" legs and wide hips. Solid frame... some people I know that are my height weigh in around 140-150 lbs. I'd be on life support if I were that thin. Large frame in a small body I guess.

I wear a size 9, 5e width. My palms are wider than they are long. My Grannie says our family is not long from the trees. LMAO.

I may go with a slightly narrower boat and learn to roll! :)
