Traditional, but PO attached table to bulkhead using a diagonal strut instead of teak leg.

As to music, I have a friend who is a fiddler. We take him out on sunset sails.

Our boat has the dinette style. On the plus side as mentioned by others the table can act as a bed (for the kids).

Long time no post!

We have the 'L'. Prior owner cut the table in half and hinged it which works great for more room below.

We use an iPod with a cheap pair of portable speakers from Radio Shack. They can plug into the DC outlet or run off C batteries. It's come in handy for shore parties. Or defensive action against wakeboard boats. You can pull them out on deck and blast Mormon Tabernacle Choir music at them However we don't listen to it nearly as much as we thought we would. I do like to listen to Jesse Cook (12 string guitar) when I cook on board

Traditional
I like the space in the cabin when the table is up. I have had ideas to incorporate a permanent pedestal with a smaller table top, but that would negate the open cabin that I like the best. I like the permanent hinged idea, but no more than I use it, "I'll settle with what I got." I've seen all three layouts now. I didn't even know the L-shape existed. To each his own. There is something for everybody.

Frank,
I have a 1977 hull nr 77, the table is a pedistal that drops to
make a bed. "L" shape. When I recovered my cushions all the foam
was marked traditional. I think a few years later as interior designs changed the word traditional came to describe a different
cabin layout.

Frank,

That is a great layout that you have. Must have taken a good deal of time to figure out the mechanics of the install.

Frank,
Good idea! It looks nice. I have considered that "project" after viewing your site.

Frank,

What was/is the purpose of your "quick survey" anyway? Are you gathering data?

I had a cunning plan

actually I was curious about what percentage of the Catalina 25 forum readers understood what was being discussed when the subject of the uneven floor is discussed. Duane is very knowledgeable but did not understand that we settee/traditional people have to deal with the dinette and or L-configuration floor pan. So I began to wonder if a lot of people wonder why traditional people are confused about the floor. Now I know, A hell of a lot of dinette/L people are out there, and they floor makes perfect sense to them. It also appears that the settees won out over time as most dinette/L people have older boats.

Traditional here, and an ipod connected to battery driven speakers. We race, and drink wine aboard, that's about it! Oh Yeah, And fool around a little.

My 78 has the L shaped with the pedestal table. Pain to have no open cabin, but great for the queen sized bed with the mod in the cabin (and air bed).

I have double lifelines, the only one I have seen. Now there is a survey topic!
