A new retaining catch from Toomer & Haytor was fitted for the door catch to allow for the folded section thickness.  When in place the cabin door stills opens enough to allow escape from the cabin.</div> <bR> <div> The teak panels on the self with the dangling cords are the teak two piece wash boards that I made to comply with the British commercial coding. Wash boards must allow the hatch to be opened whilst in place and must be restrained.</div> <bR> <div> Hope you like it.</div> <div> Best regards</div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="mailto:keithm@avanti-conveyors.co.uk" TARGET="_top" TITLE="mailto:keithm@avanti-conveyors.co.uk"><U>Keith & Linda Mander</U></A></div> <div> Indian Summer</div> <div> Conwy, North Wales, UK</div> <bR> <div> These photographs are in "PDF" format so you will require a viewer such as "Acrobat"  to see the report. </div> <bR> <div> <I>If you do not have the Acrobat viewer it can be downloaded free - just click the adobe logo</I></div> <bR> <div> <I><B>Then click the following link:</B></I></div> <bR> <div>  <a href="HTMLobj-1290/SO342_00.pdf"><u>SO342_00.pdf</u> </a>   <a href="HTMLobj-1291/SO342_02.pdf"><u>SO342_02.pdf</u> </a>   <a href="HTMLobj-1292/SO342_03.pdf"><u>SO342_03.pdf</u> </a>  </div> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
