Tod,
Much more realistic; the only thing missing to reflect my reality is a
persistent large, rotund bulge between lap and chest!

Okay,
After looking at the various pics of 15's that I have and looking at Storm
Petrel, here's my possible solution. I didn't realize how much the
centerboard trunk protruded into the footwell, so the box
idea is out. Instead, a 1xDepthOfYourButt board spanning the footwell from
side berth to side berth and a Sport-a-Seat type seat sitting atop it.
Chosen appropriately, the 1x board could also span the cockpit seats and
possibly serve other functions, thus meeting the "multi-use" requirement.
The Sport-a-Seat could be used for only one thing that I can think of, but
it could be used in several different places. Perhaps the rule interpreters
would make a ruling on whether that meets the multi-use rule?
You might be able to sit the seat on the cockpit seats or sole...

John, you will be pleased to note that I have adjusted the proportions of
the reader to be more in keeping with reality. ;-)
