Default Does your boat reflect you?

You realize that if you purchased that PW 19, you'd have a larger
cockpit than Nutsy's 35-5.

I've already had several boats that had larger cockpits than the
boobspits wife's boat. The Columbia 24 shown had a larger cockpit
and, because it was a flush deck, it had more usable deck space.

When you add a quarter acre swim platform to the aft end of a boat,
you have to give up something. Cockpit space and general handling
characteristics come to mind.
