Does anyone know the amount of headroom in a 28 Cat Ketch?

I’ll take either measured numbers or anecdotal info such as how tall you are
and if or where you can and can’t stand straight.

Thanks.

I’ve got hull #37 up here near Seattle. I’m 6’3" and in shoes I have
to duck a little, in barefeet I’m also ducking a tiny bit. Listed as
6’2", I believe. I’ve gotten used to it, and find it rather
reassuring in bouncy seas. It’s also that 6’2" headroom throughout
the cabin into the v-berth. When I bought the boat the owner’s
girlfriend stated that several folks who looked at it before me
just ‘couldn’t live’ without more headroom - lucky me! I really
think if you like the boat (and on a F28CK you love the rig or hate
it) you’ll get used to it. Show me the perfect boat!
