A few trips out
The boat has been out for a few trips now (mostly on the Grand Union Canal), and is holding up well. It is a lot quicker than the white-water kayaks, but unsurprisingly has a much bigger turning circle. It still wants to go in a straight line even if ii is tipped over on its side a bit. I have made a couple of small modifications - some foam support for hips and thighs, a revision of the foot pegs (to allow for easy replacement or resizing), and finally a front bulkhead with a round, opening access hatch. The foot pegs are 3D printed in PETG and have a base bolted to the bulkhead and a top that presses on, which can be of different sizes.
