I tend to kneel in the centre, it doesn't really matter where I sit though,
I don't usually alter the trim very much as I'm so light! I find it easier
to control and paddle from the centre though, much more stability for
strokes on the off-side!

Very good practice for fine control of a boat with a paddle, is open
boat solo. It rubbed off very well on my kayaking. Don't forget a lot
of the boat's directional stability will come from keeping the trim
right, so experiment with moving back and forwards. If you just sit in
the back seat you'll make life a lot harder for yourself...
