Dude, thats my Scarab, the Helm seating is a two person drop down bolster, the cockpit has mucho walk around room, I have had three kids and there friends on this boat and nobody is cramped for space, I do not see a bench seat anywhere but the stern, She is super clean for the money and handles Lake Erie's water very well.

Don't get defensive, the picture made it appear to be a bench seat, however if you are n a bolster at helm and someone is beside you, do you have room to move past them?? if you do then that is a good densign
