28TE engine box - cockpit dimensions

Post by Nancy »

Does anyone have available cockpit dimensions on the 28TE engine box model? I'd especially like to know the distance between the aft end of the box and the transom. A bonus would be the distance from the side of the box to the hull.

Trying to get a sense of how much space the box consumes in the cockpit without seeing one in person.

Thanks!

I'm sure you'll get a better answer but in the meantime.....Sitting on a cooler with a beer in hand and my back against the transom it's very comfortable with my feet up on the engine box...Oh Man do I miss the summer! Now for the side clearance...You know those cheap plactic stackable garden chairs? Well, one of those fits perfectly between the engine box and the gunnel. Especially with a beer in your hand and feet up on said engine box.

There seems to be a general theme going on with your measurements. :lol:

I may make it to the boat this weekend to check things. If I do, I'll try to remember to get those measurements.

I do like that recurring theme! I might have dimensions in hand tomorrow morning.

Well not sure about the measurements. However, it is clearly a beer thing. Happy New Year and enjoy the space & drinki.

Each side : 27"
Distance from box to transom: 42"

Gave me a good reason to go and visit the boat. A little depressing this time of year.
