This, from a guy who is about 5'5" with a first
mate who is right around 5' tall.

Didn't work for me (6'2") and my first mate
(also 6'2"). At our height, the bunks alone
must be about 6'7" for any kind of comfort.
...not to mention headroom.

You must know the sea, and know that you know it, and know that it was meant to be sailed upon.

Youngson:

We actually lived aboard and cruised a Kettenburg 41 for
several years. We've now downsized by 11
feet. The Catalina 30 seems to have about
the same usable space inside, because the
K41 was a much finer design and
carried its length in long overhangs.

Oops. Thread drift. Sorry.
