1) Galley structure
2) Electrical cavity construction and connections
The progress to report on item 1 is that the structural components of the galley area are fitted, sanded and ready to install. Before installation we need to assure that the galley wall itself is straight in the horizontal plane. Once that is done we will glue up and install all the hatch structure components as seed below:
The hatch has three horizontal bays: Leftmost is the water tank, pump, filtration system and sink. Center is the bay for the cooler tray and propane cylinder storage. Rightmost is the (upper level) stove storage and a shallow drawer area beneath for utensils.
The left bay will contain the water tank and associated components. The shelf shown will provide for extra storage.
The center bay will contain a full-extension drawer holding the Coleman cooler and propane storage rack. At right will be slide-in storage for the folding Coleman propane stove and a shallow drawer beneath.
This shelf will not be permanently installed, allowing for eventual repurposing of the bay.
Below is the electrical cavity under construction:
Shown below is the left side door installed and closed with the AC panel mounted and the DC panel in the background at right.
The small opening at the left side of the left door will contain the control panel for the Xantrex.
The door on the right side will contain the DC voltmeter/ammeter, the car radio and the speaker switches (cabin vs. hatch.)
