: I built the night heron with low decks both for and aft. The boat looks great
: on the water, very sleek. I'm 6ft 195lbs size 10.5 shoe. I have no trouble
: paddling this boat, but I like small boats. Plenty of room for me to
: paddle all day.

HI,
Thanks for the feedback. I'm definitely going lo foredeck, still deciding on the aft deck. I won't be going on big trips so the low deck may be better for rolling, etc, although I like the low/high option for a smoother deck transition.

Thinking, thinking, thinking....

Regards,
Darren
