to 6.75 inches aft using 100 lbs of rocks in the seat and 30 pounds of
weights tha

purposes. My previous standard KR was WAY out of CG with just two normal-sized
people in it and my KR wasn't badly built - an engineer with McDonnell Douglas
built it - built three of them in fact - and had the adde
