Please do your boat adjusting on dry land and focus on 3 things:
- Put your buttock firmly toward the setback. For you have a better balance and power, though, you need to sit more upright.
- Put your feet on the foot pegs; then check to see if your knees are a slight bend.
- Your bent knees should be in secure contact with each side of the cockpit. This in order to help you control the side-to-side motion of the boat as you paddle. Please remember that do not so jammed-in that you can’t get out when you capsize.
