Where is your volume greater in the brown boat, then--higher in the deck, wider beam? (I really, really, really liked the brown boat, BTW!)

: Shawn,
: I think you're right, my green boat floats right at the deck seam when I
: balance brace. It does not matter how much I lean it it won't turn fast.
: If I put someone 30 or 40 pounds lighter than me in it, they can spin it
: around fast. the brown boat which you paddled has more volume and lifts
: the ends when leaned and turns fine for me.
: Bob
