I think it will be another 30 days before the interior construction is finished. Once the furniture rough out is done we can start machinery installation, plumbing and wiring. Photos I took last week show the current state of affairs down below.
The freezer space is on the forward end of the box and is as big as the fridge compartment in order to accept the Cool Blue Technautics cold plate. The freezer side has a bottom that conforms to the shape of the hull while the fridge side bottom is level. I think I can get a drawer under the fridge side.
The navigation station with chart table and fridge/freezer under is positioned at the forward end of the main cabin on the starboard side. The space is 53 inches long and will contain a small bank of 10 inch wide 3 high drawers at the far forward end in addition to the 36" long and 18" deep refrigerator freezer box.
The 25 inch high cold plate mounts in the freezer side of the box on the bulkhead facing the centerline of the vessel.
The Nav station faces the port side galley on the forward end of the main cabin. The doorway leading to the forward cabin is offset to starboard so that the 8" diameter mast does not block the access.
From the companion way we get a feel for the overall main cabin layout......port settee aft of the galley and to starboard, a facing settee (yet to be built) with pilot berth behind and nav station forward.
Looking dead astern from forward cabin.
The port quarter berth is 76 inches long and has storage below and beside.
The starboard pilot berth is 27 inches wide at the top and 33 inches wide half way down. Total length is 93 inches. The pilot berth does not convert to a double..... one mattress without insert. (Sleep two, eat four and drink 6) The area due south of the pilot berth will be dedicated to machinery space and storage. The only access will be from down below. There will be no starboard cockpit locker to get to this space. Based on our recent track record down flooding opportunities will be kept to a bare minimum.
