Search here - someone posted a while back with pix.

Someone else would have to comment on installing a Dagger saddle, but I'm thinking you would about have to drill 4 holes at least...

in the front of my 59 it worked with the bolts of the footbraces but I couldn`t fix the back of the dagger pedestal.

I think C-Dawg is paddling one. Not sure on the pedestal. If it was what he was paddling - he was pretty happy and looked pretty at ease with it!

I bought a 79. Outfitted by Bernie Farley at Whitewater Warehouse. His outfitting is rock solid and very well done.
I find the boat very quick to turn, almost too quick for an old boater. It's pretty fast, too.
Easy to roll and you have to watch for over-rolling, but that's a good thing.
Hard to get stuck in a hole.
All in all, a very nice boat.

Remix 69

I am 57 6-1 and 189lbs. Love the boat,rolls easily, fun to paddle and the volume in the bow makes vertical drops over pourovers much less to worry about. I had been in a WS Z for 8 years and the Remix is more of an old school feel of the displacement hulls. I did a pedestal with a Kevlar sleeve in the hull, used my old Northwater double straps crossing over thighs and right above knees.

Hi John

I also used the foot peg mounts and used an aluminum strip to secure the back my first thigh strap location was out of position so I ended up with lots of holes in the back- you're welcome to try the 79, though I wouldn't recommend more than a 69 for you
