I'm like A7 we normally have a bunch of people on the boat at 1 time. This week pretty much 10 all the time. It didn't feel to crowded. And Prob 3 soft sided coolers or so. I will say that much weight the boat doesn't turn the same. You have to be careful.

Are you talking about the smaller cooler behind the helm or the bigger cooler at the co-captain duel seat?
I fill them both.
Yes, some say it's a cooler. I think it's more like a wet well. I've seen sales videos from different dealers, some say it's insulated, others say it's not.
Let’s say this. It’s a convenient place to put drinks and throw 5 - 8 bags of ice into it per day. Or, you can put your towels in there.

We boat in Arkansas where it gets hot outside. Last time I was in Wisconsin, it was in the 50's on July 4th weekend nights.

Stupid question. There is a cooler under the passenger helm seat? The one that faces the door to the head? Never knew that in two years of owning our R5.

Yes. It's got the double hinge, pull it foward ( toward head), then pivot rear up on front hinge. I think it's actually the main cooler.
I think it was Albert Einstein who said the only stupid questions are the ones that aren't asked.
