That does look like it might be a bit of a long reach, especially on big turns as you said. I seem to remember seeing a picture of an 1890 with two of the electronics boxes in back, and I think the seat was mounted on one of them.

That looked like an interesting combo. A little harder to get into the box with the seat mounted perhaps, but also just a little more room. The Tuffys I've been in at the musky show with the Osprey rear deck (livewell), have also had the electronics box, which gives a little extra foot room.

The splash well does seem nice too. It just seems one would need to be a little aware to pick their feet up when they move to make sure they don't trip over the divider between the splashwell and livewell lid.

In their stock form, there is more standing room on the rear deck of a 1760T than there is on my old style Alumacraft Navigator 165 Tiller.

I see Worrall said his boat is getting 31-32 on the GPS. I've heard others say mid 30's on GPS which I usually think of as 34-36. Is that attainable with 1 person and a medium to light load? It's a tiller and I'm not a speed freak so no big deal, but just curious.
