Somehow, S2 seemed to be able to put in so much room around the

and completely circumnavigate the engine befor crawling out again.
Yet, the cabin seems no smaller than other 28' boats with hardly any
engine access.


Our boat has similar access space. It's a matter of the designer not
trying to pack 32' of often unusable accomodations into a 28' boat. Our
Xan has nothing but stowage and engine under the cockpit, which "loses"
us a possible berth, but we've got more than enough of them already.
