First attempt at posting video- Showing seating

Post by Yara50 »

Here is my first attempt at posting to UTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whWbd9TF9LM
A look around the anchorage, and me trying out a widened step to use as a seat, in conjunction with the table. It works well. particularly if you wanted to fit more people around the table. It also provides better access to stowage during meal preparation, depending of course, on where things are stowed.

The seat is just a reinforced piece of ply, made to fit over the step and butt up to the wooden bunk edge rails. It has the advantage of also making entry to the cabin a little easier, with a wider target to hit. For those with sensitive rears, the Ikea foam pillow fits perfectly if you want padding.

PS- Windows movie maker originally distorted the picture - maybe a resolution issue converting from AVI to Windows WMV format. Learned now to add a tag yt:stretch=16:9
