<p>The reserve berths/storage is only access able by the deck hatches. Advantage: watertight bulkheads, more storage space. 99% of the time in the hulls are spent in the middle sections. <br></br> <br></br> <cite>Brandon Gamble said:</cite></p>

<p>HI Brandon. The port berth was accessible from the saloon (behind the cushions through a "hatch" or a folding door), as well as a hatch on deck. The starboard forward berth was only accessible through a hatch on the deck.</p>
<p>Your previous comments about the galley- the stove hood etc is how I bought the boat. She was built in Australia mid '80s and had sailed to Phuket where I bought her. Fantastic yacht, but she was high maintenance. I did like the steering "pod" being part of the hull…</p>

<p>Your previous comments about the galley- the stove hood etc is how I bought the boat. She was built in Australia mid '80s and had sailed to Phuket where I bought her. Fantastic yacht, but she was high maintenance. I did like the steering "pod" being part of the hull rather than the original Tangaroa design on deck. In the photos of the galley looking aft, there was a sliding hatch between the helm and the galley, so you could pass a cup of coffee through to the helmsman on a cold night without going outside. If I ever found the commitment to build one, it would follow the same layout, but I would experiment with a light-weight deck pod rather than the canvas tent arrangement I had.</p>

<p>Man I keep coming back to these pics and checking out your galley... what a work of art! Quite beautiful work. Where did you get the hood for the stovetop? and awesome work on the cabinets... love the woven work. This is exactly what i was asking for now my head is buzzing with ideas. Can't wait leaving tomorrow for the Keys to move some things aboard and spend some time on the boat. Pics on my current cabin interior coming soon.</p>
