[C320-list] storage area

[Warren Updike]

As I like keeping the aft port locker lid propped open to vent heat from the
compressor. I also like to keep the "escape hatch" in our cabin open to
promote circulation. My mate, hyper-sensitive to insects, was concerned
about merskeetos entering our berth at night. So, I fashioned a screen for
the escape hatch that fits inside the frame, but does not prevent quickly
closing the escape hatch door. Works nicely and provides yet another path
for air circulation.

In some models, before the stbd cockpit seat hatch took its place, the art
port locker serves as an additional hatchway to the aft stateroom.  Careful
what you store there depending whether you need an additional exit or not.

I was wondering if anyone has done any custom work on the aft port storage
area (under the outside shower.) I don't like putting to much in there
because of the steering cables being exposed.? Thought I might epoxy in some
milk crates in there and store some light stuff. Anyway's, any ideas would
be great.? 

Thanks John & Bobbi?? Holokai 2
