2005 Dolphin coach measurement?

I have a 2005 Dolphin (32 ft.) LE and replacing the couch. The shop making the couch took measurements before we stored the motor home. They now need the couch "base" or "platform" measurements. We are seven hours away from the storage site. Looked in: Dolphin features and specification brochure, did a search of the iTV2 forms and also a Google search .... no luck. Any suggests of where I can find the information?

Thanks

What "base" or "platform" are they asking about?

The installer took measurements of the couch being replaced, however, he did not take measurements of the floor area under the couch (which sits on the living area slide-out). I believe, he wants to know the floor space he has to work with. He is building a new couch for us and during our next visit to the area, installing it.

Thank you for your questions .....

Our Dolphin is a model 5342 which has a cabnet and table aft of the couch. But looking at the brochure, the 5320 has a smaller slide-out with a booth aft of the couch, so measurements from our MH won't be the same as yours.

Sorry about that.

I have a 2005 Dolphin model 5320, if this is the same as your LE, I can measure the area in my moho and send it to you. My Dolphin is parked here at the house, so no problem whatsoever. Just let me know if it matches your coach.

Hello, Dale.

I just sent you a PM with the info. I included my cell # just in case you need to discuss any of the measurements. Hopefully this helps!

Really appreciate the information Bruce. I know it took some effort to take the measurements ..... for me there would have been a few "grunts", "how my gosh", "my knees" ) This should be enough information for the installer ..... I'll post photos later this month.

THANKS AGAIN Bruce.

You are welcome!

BTW, feel free to give my cell # to your sofa upholstery folks if they need to call me to give them any other measurements or pictures. I look forward to seeing the end results of your project.

Bruce
