[C320-list] On Board Storage

We have the cockpit lazarettes well organized, using flexible plastic 
laundry baskets (the cheap kind).   This keeps the dock lines, power cord, 
life jackets and other items neat and easily accessible.  We also use the 
v-berth for lots of storage, as there are usually only 2 of us on a cruise.
