Next boat won't be a Hunter; I'm too tall

[RREgge]

I love my 376 and don't plan to buy a new boat, however the New England Boat Show was in Boston, so off we went to see whats new.Love the interiors of the new Hunters and the 356, wow! However they have more interior headroom, 6'4" than headroom under the arch, something like 6'. I'm 6'5" am would be scared to sail one of the arched boat for fear of a concusion if we were hit with a wave. Either that or risk a permanent sore back from leaning over for hours on end.Anyone else have the same problem? Oh yeah, you can get the boat without the arch for MORE moneyRREggeS/V Allie Kat

Taller Arch

I also am 6'5", and when I bought my 2001 H320, I had the arch extended up a few inches so I sould fit under it easily, even with the speakers mounted under it. Like every other thing I asked the price on, it was $300, but well worth cost in headache savings.StevePS: I didn't see any other boats out there in this price range with the headroom in the cabin. One of the biggest reasons I went with Hunter.
