One additional note on my brake setup. I'm tall, 6' 4", and that puts my feet on the pedals at a rather flat angle. That caused me to drag the brakes when I don't intend to even though I moved the fixed pedal back from the toe-brake pedal with some washers. My fix was to add a piece of wood trim called "half-round" to the top of each fixed rudder pedal so I must roll my foot a bit more to actuate the toe-brake. I think I used 1/2" thick stock and applied it with JB Weld. I love my set-up and haven't had a single problem with it in the 180 hours to date. I do wish I had 3 or 4 more inches of leg room though.
