Northwater double ridgid fans

Northwater double ridgid thigh strap fans, what is your inseam?

I stopped in mid-order, because it occured to me that the giant "one size fits all" vinyl patch might have the knee and thigh straps spaced too far apart for my stubby little legs (ca. 29 or 30")

Is this a legitimate concern?

I've got some pretty long chicken legs, about a 36" inseam, though I sold a boat with the double rigids in it to a gal who's about 5'8" and she loves em.

Thanks Dave. I already bought 'em.

Unlike Mike Yee's stuff, the Northwater straps come with ZERO directions. How close to the bottom of the hull (how close to the chine/far from the gunwhales) did you glue the D-rings?

I am leaning towards glueing the D-rings in pretty darn low for maximum contact, but how low is too low?
