Greetings,
We are away from our boat, a 29S, but am hoping somebody can help us out with space-planning decisions for the interior.

We would love to know the inside dimensions of the drawer inside the V-berth. And, how do most people with an R-29 use that drawer?

Thanks, in advance, for any help you can provide.

Ours is 21” wide x 25 deep x 8 high

Thanks very much.
 
Are you sure about the depth of that drawer? It seems much deeper than that.
This is the only drawer in the V-berth of a 2017 R-29S.
 
Ours is also a 2017 29S. You could consider the drawer deeper if you count all the usable space inside. I measured the inside depth of the drawer itself. We have added a thin layer of veneer plywood cut to size above the drawer unit. I think the depth above this “shelf” is at least 2”, maybe 3. We use it for chart books and anything large and flat. I just happened to be stumbling around in the general vicinity of the v-berth with a tape measure in my hand when I saw your question, but I’m not at the boat anymore. Hopefully someone else will chime in as a check.

Thanks! That makes sense and is super helpful. I expect I I had stuff piled up higher than the sides of the drawer so the 8" didn't seem high enough in my memory. The shelf for flat things is an interesting idea!

Best,
Kathy and John
