Catalina 22 New Design - Dinette Table Size?

Have a 1986 Catalina 22 New Design that I purchased last fall. Unfortunately the boat is missing its dinette table. Does anyone have the dimensions for the table? Thankfully the previous owner still had all the hardware for it (just not the tabletop).

Thanks!

Just a thought. I have a Cat 22 and plan to replace the table with one half the current size. I'll keep the original in case I ever want to use it for overnighting. The reason is that 4 adults could never sit at the table. In fact, it's hard for any adult to sit at the table. I saw a U-tube video in which the guy cut his table in half. That allows for 2 people to sit comfortably. If they need a table, it can be used along side them. If not, it makes being inside the cabin much roomier. Has anyone else done this? What material did you use?

I had some 1/2" MDO plywood sitting around so I took two pieces I rough cut to size and glued them together. Then cut to final size and sanded/filled as needed (Home Depot MDO had gaps in the plywood). I've getting ready to test fit the hardware before sealing and painting. I'll probably countersink the bolts rather than rely on wood screws for added strength and fill in the heads.

I saw the same video but just going to go with the original design. I can always experiment in the off season. I haven't had the time I thought I would this year with the boat due to other commitments. July's nearly over, still other projects to do until she's in the water, and had a paid slip for the season until end of October.

After experimentation is complete, have you thought about covering with Formica. Very durable & unlimited colors / patterns to compliment the interior.

Ive been using a small table for awhile. What's kinda neat is that at least with the new design, the original table fits on the traveler making a cockpit table. No adjustment of the table leg needed. I have a lot more space in the cabin with the smaller table. I used a 24" cutting board I got off amazon.
