It's actually a surprising amount . . . the outer stringer straddles the outer step, so figure it's about the width of the outer panel, maybe about 10 inches or so and about 1' tall. That's where the battery is located on the stbd side. I keep some bilge cleaner, spare fluid for the hydraulic steering, some Simple Green cleaner and some wax products there. The Seafari has a shelf that's part of the inner liner which runs the length of the cockpit, all the way back to the transom, but there is about a 1" gap between the shelf and the side of the aft seats. I found several drain plugs in there that had rolled down the shelf and fallen through that gap!
