Mike, I am new to Club Sea Ray and just came across your outline of the 560. I have a 1999 560 and LOVE it! You nailed it about everything that is fantastic about the boat. The only thing I have done to improve our experience (besides bridge enclosure and electronics upgrades) is to convert what you called "the closet" starboard side stateroom to a single birth. It wound up a tiny bit smaller than a queen. I have pics on my profile page. We had the closet cut so just the "top cabinet" was left to make room for the bed. The upper bunk actually fits exactly in the space between the lower bunk and the interior wall. We kept the hinge in place to allow access to the storage in the floor and had the new mattress made to bend along the hinge. A small notch needed to be made for the trim by the door but that is it. Our combo washer/dryer was horrible and we never used it so we ditched it and made the cabinet into a large closet and built in a flat-screen TV facing the bed as well. Our 12-year old could never have friends with the bunks because no one wanted to sleep in the top bed. Now, when he has friends, they just sleep head-to-foot and it works great. We have also traveled with two other couples (no kids while they are at camp over the summer) with this "new" layout and it's awesome that all three couples can have a decent size bed to sleep in. Just wanted to share so others having the same issue could benefit.
If they ever have another real boat show Stidd will be there and offer great deals. I bought a pair of new Stidd Low Back Admirals for $7K delivered including the base adapters when I was at last year's Ft Lauderdale Boat Show. And by the way one of the better boat purchases I've done.... The SR seats on my boat were crippling.Thanks for the quick response! I'm really excited about the boat and hope survey goes well on Friday. Great choice on the helm seats! lm going to do some digging to see if I can locate something similar. If you don't mind me asking what was the final cost on the Nuteak? It looks great. I have my eye on a beautiful 30" x 66" high gloss table with a 6" polished adjustable pedestal and high back padded teak folding chairs to complete the cockpit. Thanks again for your input and quick response! Greg
My helm chairs kill me too. Spent the day on the water and was thinking about winter boat shows and looking for new seats. Are these 7000 worth of comfortable?If they ever have another real boat show Stidd will be there and offer great deals.

For 4 and 6 hour trips - absolutely! Go sit in one. If they were an option on a new boat that box would get checked.My helm chairs kill me too. Spent the day on the water and was thinking about winter boat shows and looking for new seats. Are these 7000 worth of comfortable?
