Hello,

I guess a lot of you think there is a lack of storage space for extended or family cruising.

I would like to exchange ideas how to increase and make safer storage for offshore cruising.

I am thinking of using the space under the floors mostly in the settee. Fixing floor anchors from PYI.

Has any one done this?

An other idea would be to put an extra adapted polyethylene water tank under the floors over the keel and exchange the water tank under the starboard bed for a fuel tank.

Also the idea of having an extra anchor and 30m of chain and putting it after sturdy fixation over the keel.

All this in order to recenter the weight and increase autonomy.

Thank you all for your help.

Hi Foster,

When I start any summer journey I always fill all the space under the floor with 1.5l bottles of watter, wich use to provide enough drinking watter for a month.

With regard to an additional fuel tank I installed one (70l) under the the space for the butane cylinders. To be mor precise, under the wooden that holds the oil deposit that servises the automatic pilot.

Saludos.
