Reccomended by Web2Mail ----------------------------------------------------------- Yes, John Harris did something similar, but the galley he made (fiberglass and plywood) fit in place of either of the underberth access covers on his/my M-15. It held a propane burner on the galley surface with the bottle hanging underneath, had an opening for the valve, a small cutting board, and slots cut in the plywood for storing plates, utensils, etc. Looks very nice, and I have a file somewhere with photos and text I created for, but which never made it on, the MSOG site. Unfortunately, when in place you lose the berth, and have to do something with the berth cushion (like leave it home), so it appears only practical for single-handing. It's too tall to turn upside-down and store within the berth (and stuff would fall out anyway), which I think would be ideal. You'd still have to do something with the berth cushion when you set up the galley, though. If you're reading, John, correct anything I've got wrong, as I've never actually used the galley or sailed with it in pla ce. Ask John about it when you see him at the wooden boat show (whoever that was going), and I'll e-mail the file to anyone wanting it if you'll e-mail me offline at tynerjr@gmpexpress.net. John Tyner

Chimpanzee's former owner did something very similar to that, didn't he?

Subject: RE: M_Boats: Galley of Jtb

I like the idea of being able to move the galley around Rachel, even off

the boat if necessary. I've also thought of building a galley that

drops in where the porta potti fits on the M15, which is better use of

that space IMHO. t
