Yeah, the wet bar has a sink and area to store a cooler. Not sure if it was an option but I suppose you could install a fridge if you wanted. A handfull of the 36's had stand-up chitters on the STBD side.
The cabin's are somewhat similiar, although the 36' has almost 6ft headroom at the start and about 5'8" futher forward with a queen size v-berth ahead and couches midway. We have storage on the left side (under the changing table) and also another storage compartment on the right side further back.

We have no head....just a bucket in what use to be the head in the middle up near the V-berth.
Our V-berth is huge. We could fit 3 people up there, plus the couches are both a little over 6' long on both sides.
We had a fridge in our Stinger and thought we would want to put one in this boat, but the cooler is really insulated and for the few times a year we use the fridge, it's not worth the time and money.
Air conditioning? That's something I'd like to have, just not sure how it would hold up. Some say not a problem, others say don't bother. We never had air in the Stinger and honestly only needed air a few times over the last 5 summers.

OK, now that I look closer at your changing table, our entire top pics up to where the cooler/sink are. They are not out in the open at all.
Honestly, I like the cooler/sink area below the top because I can store stuff in there and it's not bouncing around below in the cabin while we're running.
In addition to the wet bar, you will also find an Indian head dress, bow and arrow (suction cup of course), Indian Pumpkin Seeds, Candy Corn, Squaw necklace, a mini-drum.....our friends......where would we be without them LOL!

I do have to say that in all the running we've done the past few weeks, I've only had to go down into the cabin once and pick stuff up that was left on the "changing table" and "wet bar"!

Panther,
Ours (Cabin) is exactly the same as yours. Sand toys fit nicely in the compartments under the changing table.
We are getting ready to head to the lake tonight. Our little man will be attending his First OSS race this weekend, it should be a great time even with small fry in tow.
He cought the beginning of the Discovery show about Miss Geico last night and kept saying "Vroom Vroom."
You guys will have a blast with your little one next season!!

My buddy has copies of $50K worth of work done to this boat not long ago...
His opinion, since he knows the boat and owner better than I do is that the dash, interior and wiring needs attention.
Some of the $50K included, drives, trans, new cylinder heads and components.... list goes on....
I don't need a boat this big...otherwise I would have gotten it myself. It would be fun project and one that would bring the retail value up with the rest of the other 41 Apaches that are for sale.

I work in sales for a living and if I didn't know my products I wouldn't be able to sell a damn thing.....
