Pros, cons, preferences. I have an area to build either a U shape settee or a dinette. This will be the only lounging area inside the main cabin. The water tank(s) are underneath whichever I decide to build. I may have dinner guest(s) aboard but that will be a rare occasion. I also don't watch TV, but I am considering installing one just in case. With tech being what it is, I could possibly use it as a second monitor.
Most boats or RVs I have been aboard had a dinette. I have built a few dinettes and settees but never spent any time in a settee. What are the drawbacks of these two seating/dining arrangements? I've heard tells of some settees having the table in a bad position that makes getting in and out fairly difficult. I'm leaning more toward the settee because it would be the TV viewing area on top of the dining area. What are your thoughts on the settee vs a dinette conundrum?
