Thanks

Re: head room
John,
Head room on the 36 will be plenty. I am 6'1" and have no problem. Try making certain that you are comfortable in the bunks. I find that the midship bunks are longer than 6-1 but not by much.

Re: head room
My husband is 6'3", and has plenty of headroom on our 33'. We sleep in the v-berth, although we both sleep "curled up". He can only stretch out full length in the v-berth with his head right at the edge of the bunk. The settees are fine for naps.I'm considering the possibilty of puchasing a 30'+ Cape Dory.
