In our Klepper XXL we have the possibility of
changing the positions of the seats a lot. We began
with me, the heavy one, sitting in the rear, with the wife
up front, to finally end up with me in the center
and the wife in the rear, which to us worked like 
a charm. 

Now we can pass things back and forth, and better hear
what the other is saying - when sitting at the ends of the
boat you had to yell if there was any wind, or sea, noise,
to make yourself understood. Frustrating!

Some sort of Bluetooth intercom would still help, but we 
try to keep it simple.

We also found it easier to synchronize our paddling when 
sitting close, than when sitting further apart.

Lovely day here - rained all night, and now almost all clouds gone :-)!
Two nights ago we had the first frost for the season!
