Thanks Duane
I was wondering if my body weight was on the low end for this boat and was looking for some extra help. I use one of two Greenland paddles and deffinatly need more corrective strokes in quartering seas with the 2.25 inch as opposed to the 3.5in blade. In most conditions all is fine. Just those pesky quartering seas do I get a little frustrated and wish for the extra assist from a skeg or a little more depth on my kiel.
