The bulkhead in the Seafari is about 10' from the transom, and I think it's about 10'6" in the Sceptre. I wonder where it is in the Overnighter? The bunks should be 6'6" long if he used the Seafari inner liner, but 6" shorter with the Sceptre liner.

A good friend of mine went down to the Miami Boat Show in 1976 with the intent of buying a 20' Sceptre, but he said they had a Sceptre and Seafari lined up side by side with the transoms up against an elevated walkway, and he noticed that the cockpits were almost the same size. He ended up buying a Seafari because of the extra room and dry storage in the cabin. Maybe the Overnighter was an attempt to combine the larger cockpit and walk-thru windshield of the Sceptre with the dry storage of the Seafari? Denny

Seafari`s are haunting me now. Cracker Air? Something to be said about deck space.
