Dagger Caption saddles placement????

[canotrouge]

Good day all, I'm in the process of re outfitting our Dagger Caption wood gunnels, and I was wondering if some one could give me some measurements. I would like to know what is the distance from the bow to the front of the back of the bow pedestal, and to the same place of the stern pedestal. And if there is different measurements for different paddlers weight or paddling style. I'm asking, because for our Nexus(Bell) Bob foot gives 2 different ways of placing/spacing de saddles.

Thank you.
Cheers

Sounds like you are doing two separate pedestals, but if you're not, mine has a triple saddle and I can measure it for you, just let me know.

Indeed 2 separate pedestals, it use to have the triple in it, but it was not the greatest.... But any info would be appreciated. Thank's

It's hard to get it right without putting the pedestals and yourselves in the boat, and shifting until you have them where you want them.

Factory placement cannot possibly suit all conceivable tandem pairs.

I do undersand that, but I was wondering what would be the set up done by dagger from the designer input when they sold outfitted boats.

At least a starting point. My idea is to have the pedestals moveable,like on daisy chains, so I can fine tune the outfitting and also set it up as a solo for tripping or teaching.

Thank you
