16"x16" cabinet door for some storage at the foot of our forward berth
All shiny and screwed in place. With the 16x16" door, my plan is to use the space for bulky items like blankets, the double wide sleeping bag (for really chilly nights) and jackets
It is tricky, getting that shape just right!
Test fit of the frame of the new cabinet. Next step is to cut birch panels to fit the contour of the hull and the arch across the top... And I'm not sure which molding was installed crooked, but that unit I built is square, I assure you.

The partition separates the drink side from the food side is so we can grab cool drinks through the top hatch without losing all the cold air from the food side
I made a partition in the cooler using a 1/2" thick cutting board and rubber weather stripping from the hardware store. And we freeze 3 gallon jugs of water to line the bottom of the cooler. These kept beers and food cold throughout a 4 day trip on their first use. And the best thing is - no pool of water at the bottom!
you can see the close-up here how I drilled the bolt holes for the chocks oversized, then epoxied, then drilled them the correct size for the hardware. this is much stronger way to mount load-bearing hardware and there's no place for water to seep into the fiberglass. I then used bed-it tape around the holes, and a little around the head of each bolt
