MauriceMynah Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Perhaps I should cut down on the stuff I like on-board. I have to ask myself if I really NEED cut crystal sherry glasses as well as the matching wine glasses. The whiskey tumblers are a must as are the pint glasses. OK the decanter is a bit of a pointless luxury, given that it never stays full for long enough. 8 saucepans might be a bit of an overkill too, as well as the 3 frying pans, pressure cooker4 and cast iron wok.... etc. etc Yes I do need to down size a bit, but I had all that and a lot more on my 25ft Seamaster, having said that, I designed and fitted out the cabin of that one. I look onboard Nyx and see so much wasted space it makes me cringe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The design of the Seamaster gave so much storage space in all areas. The Princess has huge storage in the bilges due to the hull size but the galley has only one very small draw for cooking utensils! Then there are large cupboards but no shelving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found that with my 30ds, lazarette is like having a shed with you but internal storage is lacking, that is the playoff for the vastly better sea keeping than my old rlm31.

MauriceMynah Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Ahh yes, the RLM31 (or Senior 31, or even the Princess 32 of the same vintage) Again boats I like, BUT, did they ever do them with single engine, shaft drive and soft canopies? I would want all three of those options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
