my new mods

Post by cuisto »

delevi got me inspired to post some of my recent work



Mods include oak storage boxes to catch the various odds and ends, new galley front (have installed shelves behind), new electrical panels with doors(covers) to prevent curious nieces from playing and prevent accidental switching of battery switches, new table top to replicate factory original but in oak, have lexan insert to cover charts like original .

Have been having some fun in my work shop recently to help fight off the winter blahs

Cuisto, Very nice mods. How did you connect them to the boat?

Albion,
With the exception of the box/tray along the back of the port setee, all will be or have been mounted with ss screws from behind.
The larger elec panel on the back ot the aft dinette seat, the smaller battery switch box on the aft side of the galley. The port setee box is hung from the liner usins 2 white downspout hangers (home depot $0.50) screwed into box back, bent double and slipped up and over the lip of the bottom hull liner.

Nice work! Hoping you will post them with some details on the site so that they will become part of the archives. Breaking 50 deg here on the east flank of the Sierras...so plan on turning on my batt charger and checking on how the boat wintered so far. 8) Jack

Cuisto ... I especially like the galley face with sliding doors, very tastefully done.
It seems more effective than trying to pack drawers under there.
