    I still couldn't tell you by looking when I have the boat loaded
properly.
    But I can tell you by paddling it when I've got it wrong!

    Hope this helps.

    Carey, thank you so much, this was exactly what I was looking for. i am
a new paddler, got lessons and rentry skills but short on real experience.
When I took the seat out, I thought I would replace it, but decided I'd
rather go paddling than work on it, gee imagine that.

    Suddenly I an tracking great, all I did was maybe move the seat back 1/2
inch or so. I'll give some credit to continued work on my stroke, thanks to
Brent Reitz dvd, but the change is amazing.

    Next time I go out, I'll move the seat forward all the way, maybe 3-4
inches and see what happens then. Buy I have something to look for now.

    Thanks so much

    Mike
