Cape Dory 28 Powerboat Headroom

[Bill Sherman]

I am interested in buying a used Cape Dory 28, Flybridge cruiser. Before traveling distances to see various boats, I am trying to find out the headroom in the main salon. Would anyone know the headroom in the 28? I have seen statistics that the CD 30 has 6'4" headroom. I can't find any information on headroom in the 28. I am 6'5". Anyone know of tall owners of Cape Dory powerboats and how they fare on them re: headroom? Thanks. Bill Sherman

Bill, I have a CD28FB. I was not sure of the exact height so I got the tape measure and checked. The headroom in the main salon is 6'3" Hope this helps with your decision. My boat is "For Sale" and can be see on my web site at ( www.gulfcoastyachts.com ) I am a Yacht Broker but the Cade Dory listed is my personal boat. They really are great boats but I have a daughter in college and need to convert assets to cash! Good Luck. Lonnie Sigworth 228-864-4765
