I may have asked you this before, but I am always up for more Black
Skimmer pics. Have you posted any?, If not there is lots of room on the
forum files.

As a point of reference, I'm 5'11" and about 215#. Had a brief chance to sit in a Chebacco cabin at St. Michaels, some years ago. I found the sitting headroom was a bit tight. If I were to build one, I'd look at the Chebacco RD modification; RD = raised deck.
No expereince with a Black Skimmer, but from what I recall, there may not even be sitting headroom inside.

These are two of my very favorite designs. At this point in my life especially Chebacco. Does anyone out there have pictures of the interior of the cabin that would show the scale, like a person inside. I'm not scared of small spaces, just want to know what I might be getting into.
