Doug: I have an "L" shaped removable wood shelf between my engine and the rest of the cockpit locker. It fits in nicely, keeps things from entering the engine area. Allows air to flow as it does not come all the way up. Allows things to be placed on it.
Here are two pictures: one in place the other removed so you can see its shape. https://goo.gl/photos/u4ymLwB2ygf4Yqjk8 Happy Sailing, Lee Rosenbaum Kookaburra 1985 33-2 Kenosha, WI ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Wed, 7 Jun 2017 15:45:20 +0000 (UTC) From: "doug.we...@rogers.com" <doug.we...@rogers.com> To: C&C List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: Stus-List Separation between locker and engine 33-2 Message-ID: <737137205.4478234.1496850320...@mail.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" I have no separation between my cockpit locker and the shaft and engine other than a short piece of glasses wood that is about a foot high. ?This really limits the usefulness of the locker. ?I had a dinghy paddle bounce into the shaft that caused my some brief trying to determine where the burning plastic smell was coming from. I assumed it was an impeller (every once in a while the sound of hooves are zebras ?). I checked a friend's 29-2 and it has a nice removable panel that looks original. My current plan is to fabricate a removable separator from wire shelving but would like to get the group's suggestions on other options.?
