Re: Hot and Cold water system
msn-patentnick1 wrote on Dec 9, '05 Hi Gary: I have a pressurized water system (only cold water). In addition to the water tank under the V-berth, I've also installed two flexible 100-litre tanks underneath the forward part of both saloon settees. The pump for the water system is under the toilet b...

msn-ballad9x7 wrote on Dec 5, '05 Hi David You mentioned paraffin in your message. We have an Optimus paraffin stove on our Ballad. It has a two burner hob and separate oven. Main advantages are: both the burners and the oven are very efficient, no gas and therefore no safety worries in this direct...

Alcohol Stove
I have a two burner, Origo stove on my Ballad. The advantages are the relative safety and simplicity of an alcohol stove compared with gas, light weight, no need for cumbersome gas cylinders taking up cockpit locker space, and there is space to store pots and pans in the cupboard below the stove. Th...

Galley Re-design
Hello all-- I'm putting Lyric on the hard this winter (I'm on the every other year schedule), and see it as an opportunity to do a couple of major projects. I'm thinking of re-designing the galley. I would be interested in knowing how other folks have engineered theirs to 1) provide more insulation ...

Re: Cockpit Tent
msn-duchess191 wrote on Oct 19, '05 We have a fantastice awning, made from an old No 2. It can double as protection from the rain, although it's not as large at the sides as a cockpit tent.

Cockpit Tent
I am thinking of making a cockpit tent this winter . It would be nice to have standing head room so I can stretch my legs and look out at the rain! when weatherbound at anchor or on a mooring. I have been thinking of pulling the boom up with the topping lift and stringing the ridge from the end of t...

Nut caps in the cabinets
I found some very nice nut caps for the nuts and bolts in the cabinets, so that we won't have to risk tearing hands or clothes on the bolt ends. They look like this: And fit like this: I used two sizes: M8 and M10, fitting 8 and 10 millimeter bolts. I used them in the here and there and used 44 size...

FRIDGE
MB Regarding the fridge, well, as you can see from the photos, I took out the old icebox and built a much smaller--but much better insulated one--out of 50mm closed-cell foam panels. Indel Marine sells a kit of panels for people who want to build their own box. I figured that all I needed the fridge...

Oven replacement
Hello, I'm looking for a new oven to replace my original orange ENO oven (see attached picture). I like the ENO Le Gascogne, but I don't think this will fit without dramatically modifying the current layout. Does anyone have a suggestion for a type of oven that will fit without modifying the current...

Dog (or person) tent
I usually sail with two dogs and, when at anchor, I prefer to have them away from the cockpit where people may be lounging or doing some work. However, the relentless sun in Greece has Kokkini & Fivos panting in no time at all. The solution was a bow tent under which the dogs (or an intimate cou...

A multi-purpose table
Two summers ago, while on a single-handed 4-hour sail, I found myself popping down to the chart table more often than I wanted. At the same time, I had started to be unhappy with the original teak saloon table. First, its sides folded downward, blocking somewhat the access to the bilge (underway, I ...
