Great idea, then you can hike the other way round!

When they say you are too old you probably are, but do it anyway.

Old wooden windows in old properties have drafts, history and character, what this country needs. Plastic windows are new and convenient. Wars were won with wooden windows and coal.

I have seen something that might work, used in cycling to measure the angle bend of the knee. I know what's comfortable and what's not and a process of trial and error or two-boat tuning has led to decent results in the past.... I'm just wondering if anyone out in the world of 'sports science' has ever looked at this, obviously it has been done for cycling

Good Lord, errr...thingy, for once I find myself agreeing with you. In my case I adopt an 'elegant lean' at most. 'Why hike when you can spill'.

Hiking should be banned, if any part of the buttocks overhangs the gunwale it should mean instant disqualification, if not for style and dignity reasons, all that toilet seat straining, most unedifying, not at all cool.
Leaning back a bit shouldn't be frowned upon, but anything else, nope, sorry not the sort of thing a Gentleman should contemplate in public. And as to disgusting almost pornographic displays as have often been witnessed on these boards I'm only pleased that both Google and M**rosoft are now combining in their efforts to prevent search engine access..

You could also set up onshore, get some pics taken or get someone good to have a look at you. I was out watching a beginner yesterday. So many of his issues could easily be fixed by getting his posture and ergonomics right. Never underestimate the value of the land drill.
