Bill Boyeson sent photos of
several great changes he made to Jiminy (hull #23)
Glad to answer any questions that anyone might have.
Bill Boyeson Hull #23 ('97)-"Jiminy" Seattle
1. Added handy shelf under nav station for various
books, manuals, etc.
2. Replaced rectangular wood trim that conceals jib
track bolts with a curved cherry piece that wraps around
edge of deck and up under window. (Big job, but really
dresses up this area of the boat.)
3. & 4. Installed fold-down seat on back side of galley to
provide additional seating at the table or a leg rest.
5. Cut quarter circle strip out of Corian and installed
under front hatch lid to keep jib sheet from catching in
the gap.
6. & 7. Installed "portable" radar dome on spinnaker pole
track. (Quickly installs when you need radar and stores
under V-berth. Radar screen plugs in under dodger—works
great and it's out of the way most of the time.)
8. Installed paper towel dispenser above galley and used
a ratcheted dispenser that keeps the paper from spooling
out extra paper.
9. Added wood grid (cedar) in locker below cockpit
seating so you can stand on something flat and/or
actually reach something on the bottom of the "pit."
10. Installed Wallas diesel heater in forward hanging
locker with vents in V-berth area and main cabin. Quiet,
uses very little power and works great on those cold
mornings and evenings. Relatively easy to install and
not as expensive as many of the other heating systems
available. |
