Re: Caption outfitting - center bag size?

We use, if no bulkhead, one 54" endbag in a sewn "bra". It's also a nice spare bag if necessary, can be seen here:

Re: don't laugh too hard at this one ... but a C2 Dynamic Du

Too long, too far apart, too less rocker, maybe not wide enough. Same for topo and dynamic duo

Re: esquif blast outfitting

Yes, one that covers only the widest part of the hull and levels the surface a bit. Then another one from top to bottom. If still confused then I'll try to make a quick drawing....
