[C320-list] Nav Station/Chart Table

[Laurie White]

Jeff:  Yes. the chart table becomes a catch all.  Of course most of  
us have kitchen-drawer dividers for the small stuff, as well as  
springs, strings, snap hooks and eye straps or somesuch to keep the  
top open while we rummage around.  My suggestion involves the small  
tools we use 90% of the time on our 320s.  The useless space under  
the stove is a good spot for a small drawer.  Yes, it's wide, but  
only several inches high, and only a couple of inches deep.  It won't  
fall out because it sits inside the existing frame which provides a  
lip to keep it in place. So it's a lift/pull deal.  It will hold the  
pliers, screw driver, scissors and common items which need to be  
close at hand.  It keeps the weight down low.  On Tradewind my real  
tools are in a largeish plastic container on a low shelf in the  
closet...several pounds of tools, etc used infrequently.  If I find  
the time I'll send Carl or Chris Burti a short article with photos  
for the Mainsheet.  Dave White
