Lance,

I think it's one of my best upgrades...  I still cannot find my pictures.  I'll try to take some this weekend.

Cheers,

I removed the v berth drawer, widened the opening and installed a large drop down door.  I used the piano hinge from the aft cabin cabinet and it fit perfectly.  I also put a floor aft of the water tank like Steve, and completely partitioned it fore and aft.  With the two 12" doors on either side, I now have three usable storage areas.  The large door makes it possible for all kinds of things to be put in there.  We have been cruising the Great Lakes and the Bahamas and this was probably the most useful upgrade we did.

I know we have moved on from this thread, but I finally found my pictures.  I'm still planning on replacing the drawer with two more louvered doors, but only after the Texas summer is over....

Cheers,
