"Hi Björn,
I finally got to launch my Frej called "Vieille Maine" last weekend for an Easter egg hunt with my club. My people tried it and all were very enthusiastic, stressing the comfortable paddling position and manoeuverability. Most of them were sprint champions so when they get to try a sea kayak, it is like going from a Lamborghini to a Bentley to them.
I had a great time and felt very at ease straight away, the skeg makes an incredible difference in the wind, in terms of direction and even stability.
I have a question regarding the waterline however: as you can see on one of the photos, the front seems too high and out of the water. Do you reckon that pushing the seat forward a little (3cms) could help?
Thank you for everything, it is an incredible feeling now being part of the people who have made a boat.
Yours,
Christophe"
