Galley Cabinet for the Boat

very smart work..I don’t own a boat, but I’m sure if I did and decided to poke some sorta hole in it,, it would be some special place where the Atlantic ocean will rush right in. nice cabinet…

Socal… I had enough “scrap” teak in my workshop so that my only expense were the rivets and the rivet tool from McMaster-Carr, which is a fantastic company to due business with.

Bob, what kind of sailboat is that on? I have a Baba 40 here on Pudjet Sound.

-- Life is to short to own an ugly boat.

Looks factory to me. I second Pete’s question (BTW, Bob Perry’s Baba 40’s rock!). We have friends with boats in Shilshole. Can’t go wrong with West Systems…

Well done.

Pete Jud… My wife and I sail a Cape Dory 30, hull #335 on the Chesapeake Bay.

Thanks!

I don’t own a boat. But if I did, I don’t think I would eat “Chunky” soup and beans while sailing.
Very nice cabinet however.

Woodeye, It sounds like you have never been on the anchor, at anchor, on a cold, wet afternoon or evening. Nothing will warm you like a good bowl of soup!

Socal, no secrets here. The door came from West Marine. I could not make it for what their price was. My wife and I designed the cabinet, including the shelf locations. If I had it to do again, I would make a change or two, but who can’t say that about some projects?

Thanks for you inquiry.

Dave R, I would not call it a kit exactly. The door was assembled. I built the case and added the hinges and the catch. Plus figuring-out the corner re-inforcements and the anchoring method was very important! Thank goodness for West System Epoxy and the threaded rivets I discussed previously.

Thanks,
