The other benefit you have Lee is that you don't have a dual console. Yes it is a benefit. Sometimes with the spin outfits, it is a bit of an effort to get rods up and over the windshield on the passenger console to fit into the tubes.
The only downside (and not for you) is that your passenger gets a free facelift travelling up and down the dam

Lee,
Mate the Ren cares about his crew!!!! Last time I graced the decks, I said "I brought some beers for the esky"........"you cant bring the beer Stevo"...........WHHHHAAAAATTTTTT.......Then he opened the inbuilt, insulated, light-uped, self draining 'storage' compartment.....and it was chockers with yeast burgers and JB cans on a slurry of ice...What a skipper....thats why I am always first booking when he gets here!! Love the Ranger....oh and you to of cours Ren!!!
Steve
Oh and he got me a personalised signed photo of our local female sports reporter on channel 7.....Vonnie is one sexy chicky ......and she knows here sport too!!! That went straight to the pool room!!!!
The centre lockers make more sense, but in sub 18 foot, you are losing a little under deck space because of the step up (if that makes sense).
I do care about my passengers, because every now and then I kick back and relax as a passenger myself.......treat 'em right and the skip gets it reciprocated hopefully.
Cheers

Too right Stevo....gotta look after the crew........and it fits in a few water bottles for the skipper. I think Steve is one of the few that I know to have caused Ben's alcometer to malfunction Admittedly it was the morning after last year's infamous Muster all nighter (no I was not there)
Glad you like the pic of Vonnie Steve, and hope that lipstick hasn't been smudged off yet

Give a man a fish & he will eat for a day !
Teach him how to fish
& he will sit in a boat - & drink beer all day!

I do honestly care but its an on going joke between a few mates
I like being able to sit back and let someone else do the driving some times.
