Once, in surf, I witnessed a very competent paddler and Mariner fan slide so far forward in his 'sliding seat' that his skirt blew off the back of the rim and he was as deep into the front of the boat as possible. Literally up to his armpits. He wasn't very happy. I personally wouldn't want my seat shifting around, fore and aft, while underway. steve Alder Creek Kayak & Canoe N 45: 36.285' 250 NE Tomahawk Isle Dr. W 122: 39.841' Portland, OR 97217 Web: www.aldercreek.com Phone: 503.285.0464 Email: aldercreek_at_qwest.net *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
