The new seat and cockpit are stupid comfy.

FYI-I added a rudder to mine and I love it even more.

Lol we both know who made it back to the launch first when the wind picked up. You are fast like cheetah. My arms don't want to compete with your legs.

I was just trying to provide backup support, in case you needed to get towed in.  :smt003

Are you going to put a rudder upgrade on her.
She would truly be formidable with it.
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around how much deck space you have, and still have the speed and control of a smaller boat.

I really can't recommend the rudder enough. Some boats are just a lot better with one, and this boat is one of those boats.

The seat is just plain decadent. Super duper comfy.
