It is amazing how fast this style goes together. Something you might want to consider because of the distance between frames in the cockpit is a some sort of small brace for the chine. On the Sea Raider I built the chines flattened out a bit after skinning. On my next one I plan to turn the chine 90deg to make it the same as a traditional kayak.

: going together!
