Has anyone replaced the table in thier 290 or 306 to make a more useable interior? I am looking at a 306. The large table is the only point of concern. I look forward to your replies. Thank you in advance.

Give it a chance

Don, I had the same concern about the 306 initially. It seemed as if the table was always in the way and visually overpowered the salon. I finally decided instead of cutting the table down I would make the starboard side a drop-leaf like the port side. In the process of measuring I lowered the table to the bunk/berth/whatever position(the bottom table edge rests on the settee top under the cushions), laid the factory cushions on top of the table, sat down and stretched out to plot my next move. I was amazed at how comfortable it was and how much it seemed to open up the salon. Decided to try it that way awhile and we absolutely love it! It now stays down 99% of the time catching all the stuff one carries aboard looking for a place to set down until stowed, providing a comfortable place to stretch out and relax/read/nap not to mention it provides the best place on the boat for the dog to snooze. Might be worth a try...works for us. Have a great day!

Table

M King, We are going to take a look today. Will check out the drop feature as well as looking at possibly creating a starboard drop leaf. Also exploring changing to a dual table like the new C309. What kind of dog do you have? How does the dog go up and down the cabin steps?
