Noticed there was some debate if a 3rd row could fit in the standard length Westy….fairly common to see a Winnebago 3rd row, along with a non Westy 3rd row but the Westy CV 3rd row is more elusive.
Here are some pics of mine:
I was able to get this off someone who took European delivery before shipping it back to Canada with their then new camper. It’s a neat piece of kit. With the Go Westy rear heater delete, a full size adult can sit in the middle row (and rear too!) unfortunately the cabinets become all but useless with the seat in. The fridge, stove and sink are fully accessible with the seat in place.
Speaking of installation, it’s quite easy for one person to do. It utilizes the same channel the sliding bench seat does. The previous owner built a dolly that I can manhandle the seat onto then roll it away. In terms of safety, these seats utilize a 3 point belt (better than the rearmost seat with a simple lap belt). It’s a bit of a pain to take camping but not the end of the world.
All in, pretty neat piece that appears to be rather rare in North America. |
