Hey guys;
Finally got my laptop back (disinfected) Thanks Chrysler 20%26 for the posts. didn't realise just how interested people would be in my little yacht - LOL
While the 26 is supposed to sleep 6 my boat only sleeps 3 (close friends) It's perfect for myself, wife (1st mate) and pussy cat. kinda like living in pick-up truck camper. But a real hoot. Got any questions or requests please feel free to e-mail me at docbob5707(at)gmail(dot)com
Thanks again guys

Glad you made it back SailBob.

So it appears you turned the aft berth into pure storage area. We might consider that at some point. In the meantime you've supplied plenty of ideas on space utilization. Thanks!

Hi Tom;
Yeah the rear berth area is strickly storage. my energy pallet (#1 battery pack, starting batt and water tank), while, sitting low in the storage bay in the floor takes up a large amount of space. plus I have wheel steering and the pulleys and cables take up even more room. Don't even want to discuss the wiring that needs to be bundled and stowed - LOL. I store my generator, diving equipment, boat tools and fishing gear back there. BTW - I think I also mentioned my cat claims the area as her domain.

Curious, I am planning wheel steering and would love to see a pic I what I will have to deal with under the cockpit ( and in the cockpit) in terms of space that it will all take up...

I took the pics of your nav station w/me to the the boat this weekend and started planning ( imagining) your nav-station ... want to get a start on winter projects now so maybe I will actually get something done.. I will email you as I seek more details or dimensions.. it was done so well by you..
