The cockpit in my boat is 7' 6" long by 5' 2" wide.

Guess what the LOA is.

I measured your cockpit length exactly from the drawing! I said six feet so
you would run out and measure it! Thanks for taking the bait! The proof is
he

If you long to entertain a host of friends aboard your boat, stride
manfully
amongst the sunbathing lovelies, or, in an idle moment, use your night
vision binoculars to remind yourself what the far end of the vast,
palatial
cockpit in which you lounge actually looks like, all you need is one of
these...

This information, of course, should now allow us to perform the neccessary
calculations to determine the following...

If you had a line of NYers on the port side seats, another line on the
starboard seats, and one balancing precariously on the helm's seat, how
many
NYers do you have in your cockpit?

You may assume that, to reduce bulk, none of them are wearing lifejackets.

I had to say 6 feet to get Ole Robbie to run with the tape measure. By
simple scaling I can up with about 7. Thanks for fine work there Scumbalino!

What till Lloyd Bonifide hears about this!
