As you can see, I experimented with making the back of the riser the aft bulkhead, mainly to minimise cockpit volume and make emptying easier.

This has worked very well, although to my surprise you still need a backrest,


Good thinking.However just like your arm chair it needs to be angled to suit your back!No (extra)back rest needed then.3 boats.
Best have back rim 3" forward of design spec.
