Archived from groups: rec>boats>paddle (more info?)

Incredibly knowledgeable paddling community,

Boat: Perception Pirouette. Me: 6'1.5" tall, 205lb male with 35" inseam and
size 13 foot. Will I need a shoe horn to get in it or is this a fairly roomy
boat. I noticed that they made a "small" version so I'm hoping the regular
size version is good for a good size individual such as myself.

Cheers!

DV

I was 5'11", 185# with 34" inseam, size 12 feet when I paddled a
Pirouette. I had plenty of room. I think your foot size is probably the
biggest issue, but stay away from hard soled booties and you should fit OK.
