Small SailBoat Cabin Design

[skaraborgcraft]

The Flow 19 has a big stern compared to the old Corsaire, but lighter and roomy cabin.

Not so keen on the "sit on the sidedeck" cockpit, too exposed for my liking. Prefer your cockpit layout for security.

Another Herblot, the Mousqutaire Club (flush deck with astrodome)

Dix Cape Cutter 19. Better than a Shrimper!

@skaraborgcraft , thanks for the pictures.
I think I would enjoy an arch in place of the '2x4' [1 1/2 inches by 3 1/2 inches (38 mm by 89 mm)] compression post in my 6.4m[21'].

Funnily enough, I never thought the scaffold pole compression post in my wee cruiser was in the way. A table mounted on it, a lamp swung from it, and it was always a convenient hand hold or foot brace.

Having one come between a double cruncher on the other hand is another matter entirely.

The arch style in the Corsaire doubled up with lockers is a very functional way to do buisness.

I will give this interior a hard pass.....

Though having a keelbox that doubles as a sink and water closet saves space.

Definetely it's kind of periscope thing.

In mine, the people get to thread themselves between the galley cabinets to access the V-berth. The post is just ahead of the hatch for the cassette toilet. Currently the post does feature a bottle opener, one of those gimballed cup holders (Mug-Buoy) and two LED lights near the ceiling.
As built, I do not have the small brown shelves in the V-berth or the covers shown for stove and sink. The cabinets have face frames and are stained with doors and latches. The sink cabinet has fiddles sides and front like the stove.

A backrest for those on the potty!

I can see an arch built in as a full width locker above the bed as being better than a pole with no dancer on it.

Muscadet 21 style.

You do not see many half size Admiralty chart size tables in small boats, i suppose most people use a tablet these days, or like some youtubers, a phone!

Compared to my Mk 1V Caprice, the Corribbee 21 not only seemed spacious, but also had an inboard diesel!

I never want to sleep ever again with my head anywhere near a chemical toilet. Slide out drawer under the companionway seems a better place.

Havsfidra 21. The deep keel showing the benefit.

Note the lifting eye set into the ballast, they can lifted out of the water without hull strops.

Yachting Monthly Wild Duck 19. Alan Pape did a stretched version in steel 21ft.
