Edd, I looked at an Amiel back in the 90s. I'm pretty sure one could
safely and securely have about 40 bottles of wine on that boat, every
cupboard seemed to have space reserved for a couple of bottles.

Len,
We installed an under-cabinet wine rack under the storage area behind
the starboard settee with shock cord to keep the bottles from flying
whenever we heel. It can hold four bottles. Usually we keep two
bottles there, a rum, and a bright blue-colored mix that we renamed
“Romulan Ale”. We also use the built-in storage in the table.
As for bilge storage, I’ve seen people make custom horizontal racks
out of Plexiglas to store wine under their floors. That area where you
access the stern keel bolt is pretty large — however not a good option
for me any longer as that is going to be the location for my pumps and
strainer feeding the new air conditioner unit being installed.
Bottom line though: If you’re storing more than a few bottles on your
boat, you’re not drinking enough.
All the best,
Edd

Has anyone come up with an innovative solution for wine storage on a
37/40? It would be nice to have enough room in the coolish bilge but
there isn’t room.
