Thomas,

Very nice work indeed.  I never would have been able to envision such a radical reconfiguration of the interior space. I’d love to see more detail.  I’m trying to figure out how the drawer catches work.  It looks like there’s storage under the port side settee, a concept I’ve thought about, but not implemented.  It would have taken me a lot longer than three months to do what you have done.

Congratulations. You now have a fully unique Rhodes 22 tailored to your specific needs.  I hope you’ll have the pleasure of sailing her for many years.

I spent the last three months ripping the entire cabin out and rebuilding and rewiring her from the hull up to be more of a daysailer than cruiser and am very happy with results.  Was it worth it?   I asked myself that Several times when knee deep in it but after finished (for now) I’d have to say yes.  Thanks to Peter Nyberg for inspiring me with all his videos.
