Hey, don't make fun of my diminutive stature. :cry: I might end up with a complex. :wink:

Really? I didn't notice that the headroom was that low. Are you talking about the cockpit or the cabin? The headroom in the cabin certainly felt higher than 6.1 to me.

Below is one of the photos I took at the show yesterday. I'd say the guy nearest the transom with his back to me is a little less than 6 feet tall and there seems to be quite a bit of headroom above him. However, there is a step-up to the helm station area, so you're probably right that someone taller than 6 feet would have to duck somewhat.

Cabin

Watch this video when he is at the galley, and in the forward stateroom. Not 6'9" of headroom in either of those places.

And a comment from the Formula message board...

We went and looked at a 40 PC, and that lack of cabin headroom was a real turn-off, but I did like the separate shower stall in the head, that's a plus.

I see what you mean. I'm not 6 ft. tall, but it really didn't feel that low to me when I was on it for some reason. I've been on quite a few boats that felt like the roof was about to push down on my head and the cabin of the 40PC didn't feel like that.
