[Rhodes22-list] Hail the explorer!

[Graham Stewart]

I just store my stuff in plastic bins that I can slide back and forth under
part of the seat that does not open. Doing so is no more trouble than
removing the cushion to open another locker  and gives access through a much
larger hole for larger items. The bins keep things dry should you have any
water ingress. I don't think that another opening would prove to be more
convenient but that might change depending on what you want to store there.

     You're all (at least most) going to comment privately about how slow to
catch-up I am.  So be it; believe me, I am accustomed to it after many
decades of getting it...eventually, and believing I was the first. 

     In my latent (and late) exploration of my boat, I discovered that the
bench seat storage goes all the way back to the companionway wall, wow!  I
want to cut an access hatch in the seat (I am GOING to cut...) and want to
inquire who among this band of DIY,  never-say-die, mud-in-yer eye,
up-yer... OK, you get it,  how many have done this and might be willing to
warn me away from any potential pitfalls.    There is a lot of unused space
back there, and sailors always have something to stow.  (Rum comes to mind
for certain Rhodies.)  The possibilities are endless. or at least endlessly
appealing.  Winter well.
