Honestly, if it were  my boat, I consider removing/repositioning the beck thwart and moving the seat back a bit more. IMO the middle of a canoe is not where I want to plant my paddle. I know comparatively nothing though. Just thinking what if and looking for other observations.. db

 I find this an interesting IF controversial view. Of course SR solo canoes which he solely distributes have their seat, just past center toward the stern. Still from my paddling a tandem from the front back wards, I can see that if I could move even a foot or so toward the "bow", it would really make a difference in handling especially into or sideways to a stiff wind.
