Galley Mod 26X

Post by Hooky »

I removed the original galley storage and replaced with three sliding draws, a cutlery draw and a large cupboard door, The mod created much more storage space with easier access, hope you like the mod

That is beautiful work.

What is the heat source for the stove, gas or alcohol?

Wow, that is beautiful work.

I'm curious where does that drain hose go to? A thru hull?

Very nice! A lot of useful storage created with that. That will make the galley area so much nicer to use!

Hi Russ, it’s a thru hull, I extended the cupboard floors a sides and glassed them direct to the hull

This is very nicely done, did you add it on the original galley? I purchased one recently and it just has plastic drawers so I am thinking of doing something similar to what you did(if it is on the original), but due to the lockdown I cannot go to the boat do you happen to have the measurements of the inside?

I've never been inside an X. Is that mods to the original galley or a completely new one. Either way, it looks so much nicer than the stock M galley.
I gather the X doesn't slide???

Beautiful! So much more usable space!

What are the grates under the table for?

To open your drawers, I see you have a latch that you reach through the hole to operate. Can you post more information about what latch you used?

Hi!

Beautiful galley mod! Nice job!
Now how do I keep this hidden from my wife ........
😜

Opps, too late!
Guess my dual battery/wiring upgrade/new chart plotter/triple bilge pump install project just got a galley upgrade feature.
Fun times full speed ahead........

😎😎
