Aft Port Locker

O.K., it looks a little anal, but it was my first stab at organization in the cockpit...

 

I put a white plastic frame around some 1/8 inch Louan and screwed that right through the seat top with four screws (they are flush on the topside). The frame (some plastic "U" channel) raised the wood away from the seat so I could use nuts on the back of the wood panel. With the Louan mounted away from the surface, I could bolt anything to the wood and rearrange it as necessary.

 

There are four dock line hangers, a tiller extension, and a spare main boom furling handle.

 

Down in the bottom of the locker, I epoxied some divders out of the same Louan for spare gas tank, throw line, bungees, etc.

 

I also epoxied four 4 inch sections of 3 inch PVC pipe together like this:and just set the whole thing in the floor of the locker. It is perfect for holding cans of butane for the stove and propane for the grill.
