    Kevin,

    I'm not sure, but the shape of that dinette table, coupled with an adjustable base, leads me to believe it might drop down and cushion could be placed over it to create v-berth. :confused:

    Something to look into...

    Yeah I see that... but I wouldn't want to make a permanent habit of sleeping where I eat. LOL I like my privacy and I enjoy small spaces... but that would give a whole new meaning to "breakfast in bed".

    Wow, she is nice!

    But having gawped over the new AquaRiva at the London Boat Show in Jan, they've gotta go a LONG way to beat that beauty! But with a price tag of £300,000 the Chris Craft is even more inviting at a snip at $300,000, approx £160,000!

    A report here goes into details of the 2 berths...

    http://www.chriscraft.com/main.aspx?id=263

    The forward berth is quote here at being 6'8'' in length and head room of 6'2''!! Not bad for a 36 foot run about!

    Actulally, not 36, claims of a LOA of almost 40'

    However, i'm sorry, i'd take a Rive anyday over a Corsair :p If i had the money that is! lol

    Well that confirms it... the table lowers to create a base for bed cushions. Very nice. And the LOA... NOW I know why this boat seems so BIG. It's almost 40 feet long! The swim platform alone could qualify as a dock. ;)

    Jon, like anyone who's ever seen one... the Riva is a beauty to behold. If I had a choice, yes... I would choose the same. BUT... when you compare price tags, the Corsair starts to look mighty attractive.

    Well darn it... that just won't work. It would mean I'd have to make my bed before I could get my emails or eat brekkie.

    No good at all.

    :p

    I'll be going to the Chris Craft factory in Sarasota, FL next week to watch one being built!

    I'll let you guys know what she looks like in real life! If you're good I'll bring back some fiberglass dust for you to smell.
