Realistically the C414/421/425 is a 6 seat cabin. It can be flown with 8, but it's tight.

Remove the 7th seat and there's plenty of room for baggage in the back.

Nose baggage is the key though.

I weigh our bags at home (pretty much only family flies on trips with luggage). After a while, you get a pretty feel for what the bags are going to weigh for a given trip weeks in advance. [Kids are going to pack roughly the same thing for every trip to grandma's, etc.]

I do miss the nose baggage from my 421... we definitely end up with more stuff in the cabin with the King, and skis are a bit of a pita (not bad - can just lay them in the aisle or under the seats... just easier in the nose).
