Sleeping on the 26M is fine with 6 but all trying to eat or watch a DVD is somewhat cramped.
I quite agree.

When someone is standing at the galley, the traffic flow seems to come to a standstill.

6 is a bit much for my comfort level on my M. My full crew is usually the admiral, my daughter and her best friend. Because the admiral has to be fully prepared lest we have a terrorist attack while at sea and the girls have to be fully prepared with clothing options for different weather and different boys on neighboring boats, I have to be fully prepared to trip over all their junk trying to go to the head at night!

Rule Num 1 on my boat when staying the night aboard.... the pathway to the head MUST remain clear.

Well, I never said it was followed.... but it IS the num 1 rule.

I think you are right... the perils of an all female crew. But in spite of all my complaining I wouldnt trade them for the world most of the time.
