We then turned our attention to the galley and heads. The galley had a Taylor’s gas cooker and to many of our friends horror we took this out and with a bit of carpentry replaced it with a two burner gas hob and beneath that a domestic combination microwave.
Having lived in the tropics for seven years I knew that the ability to cook meals quickly and produce as little heat as possible would be a great benefit.
The heads needed a fixed shower if we were to be using it daily and this was easily organised and a local stainless steel fabrication company made us a shower rail.A good stainless company proved invaluable.

The rail was one of many projects, which have ranged from holders for articles such as washing up liquid to a stainless steel top for a wooden cover over the cooker. When we decided to replace the guardrails I purchased one reinforced stanchion and they copied it by adding to the stanchions either side of the gates, so saving a considerable amount of money.
