Like I said, the starboard storage is HUGE, bigger than any storage
space of ANY boat on this list, including the PDQ 36. It was designated
as an aft cabin on some European versions for charter. There's room for
an INFLATED dinghy in there. I'll post pics to prove it shortly.


Post all you want. IIRC the twin cabin version was split down the
middle, meaning the port side cabin lost space, and the head was moved
forward to where the chart table is on yours. That locker may be
large, but it wasn't he size of the cabin.

Don't forget, aside from our normal storage, which probably exceeds
yours, we have an entire third cabin, bigger than any of yours, to use
as a guest cabin or pantry. We keep a 13 foot kayak on deck, and it
doesn't interfere with any rigging or walkway.

Don't forget, Jeff, the PDQ is a larger boat overall. It should have
these things, but as I was aboard the 36 I must say I was more
impressed with the space usage on the Gemini (which was much newer I
admit).

The earlier PDQ's were not intended as long distance cruisers and had
less stowage and ventilation. In the mid-90's hatches we added (we
have 16) and stowage was redesigned. The final deciding factor
between the PDQ and the Prout 38 was more stowage on the PDQ. (And
prout was in freefall be then.) Remember, we lived onboard for most
of two years - and we're a family of packrats!
