The cabin height from the top of the seat cushions ranges from 33" to 
37" (coach roof slopes upward toward the centerline).  I am 6'4" with a 
long torso.  Sitting is comfortable, but wouldn't be if I were an inch 
taller.  I use a boat cushion (PFD) behind my back to position me away 
from the side deck.
