More galley work.....

Trying to decide on fiddles.  It won't be either of these options.

Rear galley shelving sorted. They will be hidden by sliding acrylic doors. Shelves are 12in wide from Uline.

Dickinson Marine Caribbean stove dry fit.....shiny

Dickinson obviously bought a water-jet machine, which means that labels won't rub of with time.

New galley....almost there

Well pleased;

This will be the actual color of the finished counter-top.  Waterlox Original Sealer

Sink is a Ruvati RVH7110 Undermount 16 Gauge 14" Kitchen Sink Single Bowl.  I have had it mounted on the surface but flush with the counter-top.

Boat Outfitters stock 3 drawer units.

Galley Overhaul.......

I finally managed to locate a ships carpenter that I could

a. afford and
b. trust.  So far so good.

The butcher block counter-top is the  NUMERÄR in birch, $169 from IKEA.

The drawer unit is a stock Three Drawer Unit from Boat Outfitters in Florida.  I will use two of these units to replace the existing wooden drawers.  The fit with an inch to spare.  I have found Boat Outfitters to be a very good company to deal with and they sort out any minor issues very efficiently.

These are the two units prior to fitting;

I had them adapt one of the units into one normal drawer and one deep drawer to take nesting saucepans. 

Live and learn - Alcohol stoves....

During the delivery I had a chance to use the Origo 6000 "non-pressurized" alcohol stove. I had always accepted the general view that these were a bad idea on a number of levels. Well I must say I was impressed.



Not saying I am going that route, but.......
