The Galley
25 April 2007
Peter O. Allen, Sr.
This is the port side of the galley, showing the Origo two-burner stove. A wooden cutting board fits over the stove and is held in place by the pot fiddles that you can see in the photo. In the coach roof above the stove there is a 24 hour solar vent.
There is a huge, dry, two level storage locker under this counter, abaft the stove. The lid for this locker is visible, with its lift ring. A two bulb lamp is mounted over the counter and can just be seen here (the white fixture at the bottom of the instrument box.
There is another large storage locker under the stove.
The black knob just to the left of the sink shows where we store the engine's shift lever when it's not in use.
Note the generous storage lockers outboard the stove.
Note too that all this boat's "furniture" is built from either mahogany or plywood that's faced with mahogany veneer. There's no Formica anywhere on Canto, such as may be found in many other boats!
