Hi Team,

I am 6'3" and wondering if any of you tall owners of a R-21EC could let me know how life on-board is. Always hitting your head? Can you Stand up? Leg Room at console? etc.


Thanks
Dan
 
Hello, I am 6 foot 1 inch and owe a 21ec, I can stand without touching the ceiling in the cabin but I will have to bend over a little bit to exit the cabin. I Do hit my head once in a while when I look outside through the window as well but keep in mind that it's because I don't think about it... The height is about 6'3" in the cabin I guess.
 
As for the room while sitting in the chair, what I did was to lower the seat about 3 inches. What I did it is to give me a better view around but also to provide more legroom between the helm and the bed so that I can slide my feet underneath easier

6'2"/34" inseam here. Never seem to "brush" my head (without shoes), but the height measurement at the center of the stand-up portion of the cabin is 6'2". Cabin door height on the cockpit side is almost 5'8".
I could not sit at the helm (knees/wheel) with the standard seat. The folks at Ranger accommodated me by installing a sliding seat, which is perfect. It raises the seat an inch or two so it will pass over the fridge.
