I believe I’m beginning to get a feel for the accommodation layout. I think this kind of boat should be built on its bulkheads, at the station positions, to save labour. The stations are 950mm apart, about 3ft 1 1/2in. That means you can get a 6ft 2in berth between two stations. I need to put the heel of the mast at stn 2, raked forward. I need to put the bilge/dagger/boards between stn 3 and stn 4.
Port side:
Between stn 2 and stn 4 I can fit a double berth that is 4ft wide for more than half its length, tapering to 3ft forward, extending out to the centreline. This is similar to the positioning of the double berth in the Sunbird 32.
Between stn 4 and stn 5, a table, 3ft square. You sit on the head of the double berth and the quarter berth.
Between stn 5 and stn 7, a quarter berth for a guest - because the stern is high, this is not the kind of tunnel that you wriggle into, there is generous height, and half of it is out in the cabin.
Starboard side:
Between stn 2 and stn 3, composting heads.
Between stn 3 and stn 4, clothes stowage.
Between stn 4 and stn 6, galley.
Forward of stn 2, light stowage, accessed via foot of double berth and past the heads.
Between stn 5 and stn 6, on centreline, platform under the hatch, with water stowage under.
Aft of stn 7, wet lockers for warps, fenders and buckets. Slide for outboard on aft face of watertight bulkhead at stn 7.
Forward of watertight bulkhead at stn 1, wet locker for anchors, chain and warps.
