Rumble Seat
I enjoyed a chance to test out the new 2008 Sea Ray 330 Sundancer this
week. Sea Ray has the express boat category dialed in very nicely, and there's a lot to like about the concept and quality of the 330. One new feature that is very unusual is a "rumble seat". Folded to stow in the outboard side of the transom is a bench seat. When deployed, it faces aft with the seat cushion positioned above the swim platform. Great idea for socializing when moored stern-to at a dock, etc, but if I were building that feature into a boat I would want to include a "kill switch" that would prevent the engines from starting unless the seat is folded and stowed away. Otherwise, "here comes a big wake on the beam.......there go the kids off the transom...." (Maybe Sea Ray *has* included a lockout). 95% of boat owners would know better than to be underway with anybody sitting back there, but as usual it's the other 5% who will behave imprudently and screw things up for all. |
