Thanks for all the positive comments of our galley refit. About 8 months down the track we are extremely happy with the results and the only addition has been a custom made plate stacker that is easy to use and great when sailing on a lean. Everything stays in its place... the pull out wire baskets ...

When I travel across to my husband remote Island in Kiribati near the Equator the sailors just tied their clothes to a rope and trailed it behind the boats. My husband who is an Islander has also worked in boats in Fiji and this is the norm to handle their washing. However when I travelled for 6 wee...

That's just... WOW! Well done Kookasnook! Did you do the cabinetry yourself? How did you curve the wire so uniformly? Thanks! No we had our team of three: John from ShipShape boat fitters customed designed it to fit into the side wall of the boat. I spent a lot of time studying a lot of other Mac m...

Hi Boat here is more info on the Yeti system we have installed:http://powerfulproducts.com/portable-po ... -1250.aspx

Another view of Stage 2 fit out complete. The Yeti has plenty of different plugs, sockets, usb fittings to charge our phones, laptops, iPads, lights,etc. It also has an inbuilt 1200w inverter to run our microwave, fridge etc. Our marine electrician also mounted LCD strip lighting under the shelving ...

All the molded starboard shelving with SS guide wire. We will add some compartments in Stage 3 after we have used it for a while to see what needs fine tuning to suit our needs: https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/544916_10202784850446166_639816797_n.jpg New molded starboard compa...

OUR NEW STYLE OF PLOUGH ANCHOR PERFECT WITH ELECTRIC WINCH SETUP Just tried out a new type of plough anchor over the weekend and it works much better with our electric winch. It is much lighter with a roll bar and a special slider feature that allow you to drive up over the anchor and lift it strai...

Sounds a great idea we are in if the weather is ok.

Thanks Stacey

Nice job. Looks to me that they cut out the bottom of the anchor locker into the foam flotation under it in the v-berth. The "top" of the v-berth cabin up there holds more of that foam stuff I believe. I assume there must be another water drain now in the new lower section. Looks like a l...

No it doesn't comprise inside the cabin at all and they were able to fit it in with enough drop to work well.

More photos of modified hatch to fit new chain drop down. Note the small O-Ring hatch they installed to give us easy access under the hatch and this modification does not affect or impact on the inside of the boat at all. http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/1010281_10201511800140704_212604...

This is a great mod... can you post a few more pictures, like the split storage locker and where / how the rode drops below the windless. :wink: At long last some more detailed photos of our Electric Winch install... please excuse the dirt all over our bow... with all the rain it is need of a good ...

Yes will do when we are at the boat next.
