Default modifying cobra cat

Hi Cavelamb,
That's a pretty cryptic comment to give to someone who is hoping to go
sailing in 3 weeks ;-)

I think i read that book last year, but if it was the one Im thinking of
then it was mostly full of olde style highschool wood shop style projects
for spice racks and the like. At the time I read it I was trying to fit out
a thunderbird 26, but there were only a couple of things in the whole book
that struck me as being useful, the sliding bed, cockpit windows etc...
There werent too many ideas that were adaptable to a beach cat. This book
was all full of hand drawn sketches. Are we talking about the same book?

Thanks,
Shaun

having just had a look at my cat,
sort of slipped my mind that this one has daggerboards. This makes
fitting internal storage hardly worthwhile as the remaining spaces arent
very usable. Will simply carry less stuff. Any useful tips on storage
though?

Look for a copy of _The Finly Fitted Yacht_ by Ferenc Mate'
