Default Virgin Australia Seat Plan

I flew on VH-VOW (800) the other day and the seat rows numbered up to 29. Their website shows their 800's as having a row 30. So why only 29? Not a refurbish issue as seats were still the originals.

I could be totally wrong here, but I would assume they lost a row when they put business class seats into the premium economy area to give the larger seat pitch.
I would guess that the seat maps would be wrong on their website and that they sit 8 business & 162 economy over the 29 rows.
I also think they didn't use 13 as a row number before, not to sure if they are now.

Virgin have always had a row 13. I've sat in it on both the 73H and E90 a few times.

I was looking at the seatguru maps, which for some reason don't have row 13 on the 737 seat maps. But with that, then the total number of seats don't work out.

Some -800s have 29 (174 seats) rows and some 30 (168 seats).
