How about some pictures? It could be an interesting modification, especially on the port side to extend the bunk, and make it possible to put in an oven below the range. Bob In a message dated 6/19/2010 7:14:32 P.M. US Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
What is the starboard chainplate bolted to if the bulkhead is now gone? The port bulkhead is fairly small, and I suppose the starboard one would be OK if it were the same size. I don't think it's OK if it's totally gone though. On 6/19/2010 5:13 PM, Jay D. Ducote wrote: The previous owner of the my c27 reduced the bulkheads to open up the cabin. The walls that enclose the head are no longer there. The interior is really nice, but I'm concerned about the structural integrity without the walls extending all the way to the center post. Is this going to reduce the ability to bear loads on the deck above, or should the center post and fiberglass be sufficient? What about when sailing and heeling over... will the lack of the bulkhead walls that enclose the head give me any problems there? Are there any proposed solutions to this? Thanks!
