The Baja 260 and 270 late 90's early 2000 have much larger cockpits than the outlaws. Not sure what model they actually call them.

Yeah...when I think of Baja I usually think of that being one of their strengths.

Cockpits on 288 Sunny's are way tight. 260/270/280 PQ's have good sized cockpits.

288 roomy? We used to climb all over the top of each other in a 32 Dominator (same cockpit) with 4 people. Where on earth did you put the big coolers?!

Force/DVX cockpit. Room for a big cooler behind the seat and STILL has leg room for passengers sitting on the rear bench.

I don’t know what other aspects that you are looking for other than a room cockpit and a closed bow so these might not be right for you but you might want to look at the Envision boats and Mach 1 boats. These are both heavy and slow compared to the other models mentioned but definitely have a larger cockpit area than the average boat of the same size. In my Mach 1 I can set a larger cooler in length ways behind the bolster seat and still have plenty of room. The envision has a wraparound back bench seat that gives you more seating area.

Please forgive me for the ugly pic. It is the only one that I could find of the open space behind the bolsters. This was the first day when I brought it home. What a mess!
