All-

     Wondering what size  person the plans location for the rudder pedals (6mm forward of kick plate)  was calculated for. I'm 5'-10". Don't really want to climb into the  fuse to find out for fear of throwing the alignment out of whack.

Bill,

I'm 6'-1", 197 lbs and long in the torso, but the pedals are a good fit 

just per plans.  A lot depends on how you define the seats as well.  I 

have seat backs that should have been 1-inch deep instead of 2-inches. 

Otherwise, the seat-foam's compression puts me just 4 inches below the 

main spar and it's a great fit for the pedals, steering or braking.

I have sat in some Zodiacs that left my legs dangling over the spar so 

to speak for lack of seat support.
