Yes, Don, we did have a good look at Dennis' boat, Excalibur, at the Great Lakes Rendezvous at Whitby Yacht Club. Unfortunately work interfered with the time needed to sail over.

The starboard dinette is good but the original back rest wasn't moved inward. We think that by moving the backrest inward by 4 inches or so would lead to more comfortable seating on the port side, in the case of Dennis' boat, and greatly increase the storage area against the hull behind the settee. Filler cushions are a good idea too especially if they are designed to store extra bedding etc. for those of us who live on the boat full time, or even extended summer cruising, but we'd like to make it a permanent change.
