Does the daggerboard trunk interfere with fixed seat rowing? In the videos it appears the typical rower's behind extends forward of the seat - especially when leaning back / pulling through with the oars. Seems like the daggerboard trunk would interfere? No? Yes?

I'd be interested in that question also. I have a sail now but had set the dory up for rowing, fixed seat. For the section in question, I connected the forward and middle thwarts with a 6inch wide plank that serves as a backrest for those long rows (Blackburn 2009/1st place working class...4:13/21 miles)
I will be moving to Hawaii the end of next summer and will be selling this dory with sail and trailer or without either...with Concept 2 carbon hatchet oars or not.
Feel free to contact me for photos and pricing.
