: Nice deck style. For an ocean-style cockpit, that makes sense, and
: your knees and toes are both forward of the cockpit opening.
: More photos, please!

: You shouldn't need much more toe room than an average kayak,
: though. There are 3 U.S. shoe sizes to the inch of foot length,
: so at most 1 inch higher than a normal cockpit should be fine.

Hi John,

Is that really true? (not doubting you btw) that there are 3 shoe sizes per inch? Would make cockpit calculations MUCH easier if I'd known this.
