Great point, but I believe I have that covered! This CC will have a MASSIVE raised casting deck that literally runs from in front of the console, all the way up to the bow. It will be huge, massive (the boat has a beam of 9'1"). I can get cushions for that, and the builder is proposing a bow dodger (basically a canvas tent to cover the whole casting deck). All 5 of us would easily be able to lay down up there. There will be more napping room up there than in any cabin on any 24 foot walkaround.

Our first boat was a Grady 20 foot walkaround. We had visions of spending weekends on there...we did it once, not nearly enough room. I've owned backpacking tents that had more square footage than that cabin.
