Another Custom Montgomery 17 interior....
In recent times (last year) we built a new Montgomery 17 for singlehanded use..only the two quarter berths with a centerline head forward; several oval shaped bulkheads with the V berth entirely removed. A galley area and 4 bronze opening ports. Simple yet functional for it's intented use. I do have photos of the interior infastructure for those interested in this project. The owners son finished the teak trim and details and this interior can be seen at this link: He did a remarkable job. http://www.duckworksmagazine.com/09/projects/monty/index.htm Happy New Year to everyone..!

Very nice, Bob, but where's the compression post? Is it just out of the way for the interior work, or did you make some other arrangements for the mast? You shouldn't be up so late on Christmas Eve; Santa might skip right over you! John Tyner M-15 # 412 "Chimpanzee" Bob From California wrote:

Looks real nice. I would have to try out the q'berths to see if they have somehow gained more room than Busca's, whose are a bit too tight for sleeping in. John, the compression post has been replaced with the arched bulkhead. Merry Christmas, all Tod Mills M17 #408, 1987 galley model BuscaBrisas

Bob, That's a very nice set up. He did a nice job following up with the trim work. I'm guessing the 360 oval bulkhead provided enough support to eliminate the compression post?? How are the quarter berths set up? I can't roll over completely in the starboard berth and the length isn't long enough in the port berth.
