Whoa Larry............... Rick and I were discussing the Bolger NYMPH dinghy, and the rowing position in the dinghy. My oarlock socket location should be a trifle further aft. In it's present location the skeg is not quite in the water, so when you take a stroke, the NYMPH doesn't travel straight ahead, but might tend to turn. A bit more skeg area would solve the problem. I had the same problem with the Bolger Car Topper I built, and just added about two inches more skeg at the aft end. Problem solved. Boat tracks beautifully. Connie
