Keep in mind, you'll likely narrow the field dramatically if you ever want to sell it.

I know the yeller boat is 5 man-up just trying to get the point across.

Re: Cool Apache project.

IF you're gonna go 6-pack, this sounds like best option.

We had that in our Fountain. It was a cool feature. I've been on Outerlimits with it and is works great. That would be your best bet to keep the resale up but an old school six man rocks!

Joker had this on a new 38' cig topgun a few years ago. There are pics somewhere on the forum and I'm sure he has some. From what I recall it was smaller than a full size bolster and he may have done it for the children
