Visible progress is made each day now as the first Back Cove 30 moves along in the assembly process. We showed you the galley test fit just a few weeks ago and now almost all of the interior of the boat is installed.
A few elements that were too difficult to show on paper are visible here now including the board which is shown straddling the berth. If you look carefully just below the board you will see the port and starboard dimples on which the board is resting, When the berth is made up for sleeping the board sits where it is shown here. For daytime use is slots down and rests against those dimples to create a seat back for those seated around the salon table.
The decision has been made to go with S+S Fabrics for our cushions on the new Back Cove 30. We have worked with them very successfully on the Back Cove 37 and feel they will give us a superior look and feel in this new model..
One astute reader recently asked how the companionway stairs were going to integrate with the galley and felt that we had designed drawers which could not open without hitting the stringers. Our engineers came up with this plan which allows the drawers to open between the steps, increasing storage considerably. And yes they did think it all the way through before the question was asked.
