Default Headroom in a 38DX??

I'm not going to say that I'm looking at going with a 38 footer quite yet, but when I do move up I want to know how much headroom I got. I currently have a Formula 311 and its been a great boat but the head is too small and I can't even try to stand up all the way, kind of got to hunch over. So I've been told that BT's, Sonics, and PQ's all have reasonable height cabins, and that's when I notice the Donzi 38DX. How much Clarence is down there and am I ok to assume Donzi's are probably the higher end of the others.

Been eyeing early 2000's with efi's for motors.

My bad. Thought there was both DX and ZX. I'm a hair over 6 but I would be happy with just having to tilt my head vs my whole back.

I was eyeing the BT's they seem to have descent headroom too, heck they have descent room everywhere, but not sure I wanna tow around a 42 foot boat quite yet. But your right the are big inside.

We will be driving through there in July on the way to Boyne Thunder. Probably look at it on the way back as we will have more time. Where is it listed at.
