Some woodwork for a friend's boat

 A friend asked me if I could make a couple of items for his boat - the larger photographs are of the new items and the thumbnail pictures show where they will be in use.

1  A cover for the induction hob to protect it from damage when not in use (or in rougher weather) - in the form of a simple wooden tray that serves as a protective cover when inverted and a tray for serving drinks the other way up. Stained black with a semi-gloss varnish seal.










2  A panel to fit between two single beds in one of the cabins that, with a sheet of dense foam, creates a double bed - made from 12mm plywood with a tapered shape to fit with edge lips to lock onto the existing side rails of the beds. Stained in a shade of mahogany with a varnish seal.

This is the boat, 43' long on the waterline, with two enormous Volvo diesel engines!
