Re: Strip: Legroom with recessed cockpit
In Response To: Re: Strip: Legroom with recessed cockpit (Bill Hamm)
I don't have experience with the boats you named, but I am old, heavy and stiff and have trouble with minimal knee height.
You might try to mock up the cockpit area at the height you will have, sit in it for 20 minutes and see if it bothers you. then jack up the "cover" and see if the 1 inch maters.
Since I sit with my knees out to the side, I doubt I would be able to recognize any change in the actual increase in cockpit rim height. It would take an increase in height next to the gunwale. It's probably a very individual thing.
Personally if you decide to make the change, I would find it easier to remake the whole deck.
