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!

These two drawings show the profile and interior layout of the Pearson Wanderer, to help orient the reader to the boat. I wasn't able to figure out how to rotate these drawing and maintain and reasonable size. Please feel free to email me (click on the "send mail" link on the right side at the top of this page) and I will send you larger files.
After you page through this blog, if you have any questions please email me. Also, a few more photos are available and can be emailed.

This photo shows the entire width of the galley at the aft end of the main salon. The boat isn't heeling; I just don't seem to hold the camera level sometimes.
The VHF radio is mounted on the side of the white box in the center. This box covers the reel-style centerboard winch. The battery selection switch can be seen just outboard of the radio, whose microphone hangs just inside the companionway.
There is a small drawer in the structure behind the removable ladder. Both lower panels in that structure are doors which swing open for access to parts of the engine. After removing the ladder and the drawer that whole structure can be removed for major access to the inboard engine.
The counter to the left of the photo (starboard side of the boat) is the top of the large ice box. This also serves as the chart table if you are using paper charts to suppliment your GPS.
All the interior cushions have just been re-covered.
