Anyone have some suggestions about outfitting a Prelude?
I don't feel good with the standard outfit...
I'm thinking to make a the saddle a little lower and maibe add some straps...
What about?

Outfitting the Prelude
Hi Paolo
I did have the same problem. I added foam in the front.
Actually doubled the amount of foam around my knees.
Lowered the saddle about 30 Milimeters. Than aded foam in the front and back of the seat.
I also glued foam even with the gunnel at the sides.
I can make some more pictures if you want to see it.
Just post me your e-mail adress
Happy paddling

Hi Hugo, thank for the pictures,
i've done some similar but i'm still working on....
i have lowered the saddle about 3 cm and make it 5 cm wider where i seat. I can roll also without the straps, but i think i will add some foam on the legs for have a better retention.
Anyway i like the boat, is much better than the spanish fly in my opinion (for a river runner of course); is a lot dryer, faster and turn more quikly. Has a little less of incoming stability, but lot of secondary one.
