C 27 table attachment

[Joetech]

Just bought a 1986 C-27 and looking forward to some great sailing on Lake Erie. Boats in great shape. I've seen some pictures of similar boats with the bulkhead mounted table installed with a storage device in between the bulkhead and the table. See pictures below that I've attached of ads from various other boats. These seem to be homemade. Seems like I've seen aftermarket kits or prefab units like this. I've searched the web and haven't found any. Maybe I'm not having any luck because I'm not sure what to call these things.
I have no problem with designing a making my own. But why re-invent the wheel? So:
1- Does anyone know what there things are call or better where to get them?
2- Does anyone have plans or drawings for these?
3- Does anyone have the dimensions of the table? My boat is an hour away in winter storage. I won't be up there for over a month and I have time to start making one now.
thanks for any help

Nice Design

Since everything I've seen seems to be custom made. I I have designed the attached. I plan to make it out of sycamore. Because: 1. I have some and 2. It has a redish hue that is like the bulkhead but it has a grain like Oak. I think it will look great. I have just enough to make this design. If I make a mistake I'm kind of screwed. I'm going to see if I can get some more.

bhstech, my table off my 1980 C27 is in my basement. Each half of the table measure 17 3/4" by 38" and are 3/4" thick. I don't like how heavy the table is(particle board, yuck) and am going to replace it with wood to make it lighter and allow for a better finish. I'm in the process of redoing my interior.

Bhstech, where are you on Lake Erie? We just bought our first C27 last spring and we're near Toledo.

Bought the boat in Sandusky but will be moving it to Lorain.

Shouldn't have seen this, my wife has been on me for a couple of years to make a cabinet and a new table. I agree that the original table is incredibly heavy and ugly, and really, way too big for normal use. I actually take the table out during the winter to mount the gas fireplace on the wall in it's place. I'm just glad my wife didn't notice the AC vent on the wall in Caguy's photo, she wants one of those too.
