Meanwhile back at the ranch

Life and the boat go on.

The bunk bases in the forward cabin are mostly completed.  The bunk bases are really the water tank at the aft end then 3 good sized lockers as we move forward.  A sheet of ply cut to fit will form the lid of the lockers and the base of the bunk.

The structure to support the starboard bunk in place

The port bunk base sitting in place with other ply bits dumped on top.

The toilet / shower is about half done.  There is a small basin in the shower recess, and a door!

The shower recess now has a hand basin

Door to the toilet / shower

We also have the spot for the galley worked out.  It fits in between the forward end of the toilet / shower, and the main mid-section bulkhead

With a bit of careful fiddling we can fit in a Force10 galley stove, a double laundry trough, a freezer and a small washing machine and a diesel heater.

The locations are marked out on the floor and bulkhead, now just to make the frames to hold them all…
