I decided to cut the Q'berth cushion short to 36" long, as I'd never sleep there anyway. That opens up a little more room for stowage boxes. The extra 3" at the foot makes a big difference because now combinations of box sizes can stack snugly in there where as before they were too tall. I'm finding that there are lots of possibilities. I did add a taper on the aft end of the cushion. That way the cushion covers the access lid in the berth while the taper allows for getting the boxes in and out without hooking on the corner of the cushion. I'm using those particular boxes because the lids have no openings for rainwater to drip down into the box like so many of them have, and that means I can set them in the cockpit if I have an extra full cabin. I still have to figure out the best combination of boxes and packing, though. Finally got a label made up for the panel. The trophy shop talked me into using a thin aluminum label, black with gold-ish underplating that forms the letters. I don't think the gold shows up as well as if I would have used a thicker plastic label, black with white plastic underlay. But, it's not too bad and it's not like I don't already have the switches memorized: running lights masthead light deck floodlight cockpit plug cabin plug cabin light I tried out the LaZboy type seat and, aaahhhhhhh, quite comfy. The three cushions that make it up are not attached to anything. The seat back and the seat are zippered together while the "block" is completely loose. The "block" does have a flap of material that slips under the q'berth cushion. They seem to stay in place pretty well even when slouching. Also, the seat is slightly higher than the original, so I'm a bit higher off the sole. The seat is slightly sloped (higher at the inboard edge) and the backrest helps get the back of my head away from the deck corner a bit. I think it will make a good spot to sit and read on a rainy evening. Tod
