Unfortunately, there are no good close up photos of the tabernacle
itself. After reading through this thread I think that if I didn't
have the tabernacle, I'd have one made rather than dealing with the
various other methods described. The process is just so easy with the
right set up and there is no bulky hardware or equipment to store.

just my 2c

Walt,
I haven't found any stoves that would fit with an oven. I have only checked Force 10. Please send info if you know a company that has some. I will also expand my search to other companies. Thank you. Andi

Andi. do you already have a stove and oven in mind? Lot of heat in the cabin if you move it forward. There are stoves with ovens that will fit the present area. Not going to cook a turkey in them but a chicken would fit! Walt

Steve,Thank you for the info. It will sure help as I untangle this rats nest! Do you think the rigging should be upsized at all? I would like to keep all the wire diameters the same for repair purposes. Is that dumb? I don't see a roller furler in my future right now but definitely a spinaker and genoa. Thanks for your help. Hey while i've got you. I'm thinking about moving the sink and stove area to the bulkhead area. Just like they are now just move everything forward. This would give me the room that I want for an oven. I would then just move the settee's further down towards the transom. I know that this can be done but will it affect the boats balance? I think that it will be fine but I would surely like to have the opinion of someone with experience. I have all the bulkheads and wood out of the boat so now is the time to scheme! How about a tabernacle fitting so I don't have to keep renting this dam cherrypicker! Can you recommend a manufacture in theUS? Or lend me a
blueprint! Thank you again for all your help.

Storage of the "crane" is not a problem for me as I can leave it on the trailer. I also live on a farm, so plenty of room for extra junk! If anyone needs pictures, I can post them on the Yahoo site. Bill Bach V1071
