Default Not much view

Here's the view in a 29 Outlaw while seated in the bolster. Not much to look at. I always have to sit on a cushion and I'm 6'0". I wonder if 33's and 36's are the same?

Here's the view from the eyes of a poor man like me.

Nice view of the guages... I have always wondered what it would be like driving the 29. I have sat on them at boat shows trying to imagine it... I'm 5'10". I've seen guys about my size out there driving them, and they look like granny trying to see over the dash

Granny – that sums it up.

I’m always doing the granny when put-putting around the harbor – even with the cushion.


Can’t complain though. It’s the high dash and high gunwales that make the 29 (and most Bajas) feel really big and really safe.

You sit? I don't even know if my bolster will even go back into the seated position. LOL... Can't remember the last time I've sat in a boat.

You're right about the view, though. There's not much to look at when sitting. The good thing about that however is security. It's nice to be surrounded by a deep cockpit.

When you get to be an old fart like me and the back and knees start to hurt, that seat is the greatest thing going.
