It's about 36" at the shoulders above the aft spar, but tapers down to about 32" at the spar where your butts will be sitting. This is not all that comfy for us heavier folks. I would suggest adding 2" or more to these dimensions as many others have done. Think about headroom as well...some people have their height in the legs while others of the same height, have shorter legs but longer torsos causing heads to squish against the canopy. Moving the seat bottom down to the base of the aft spar or raising the turtledeck are 2 ways around this. The KR2S may be wider. I am still working with 1978 plans for an early KR2.
