I got most of my measurements from the cad file in the files section
on Vega Yahoo. Sure hope it's right :)

Another way to get measurements would be to print out the Vega lines
plan and scale from it, using the overall boat length of 27' 1" as a
scale.

The plan I found is at http://www.glatisant.nl/eng_lijnenplan.html
There might be a better resolution one around somewhere else.

I was looking through Ebay this morning and saw a couple of life rafts for
sale. One in California that doesn't give much information and one in New
Jersey that says its an unused Avon 6 person coastline raft buily in 1997.
It can be bought now for $700.00. If interested go to ebay and open sporting
goods. Go to canoes, kayaks and rafts. Its on page 6. I forget what page the
other one is on but all it says is that he thinks its a Avon 4 person and he
doesn't need it as he sold the boat.
