Don't know exact dimension but used pattern from Nick's plan for Guillimot.

The reason I asked:
With a 'full-size' cockpit (vs Greenland/'Ocean') cockpit, it's often possible to do a 'butt-first' entry into the boat.
If that's possible, there are several entry methods you can use (standing straddle, speed launch).
