Michael Daly writes: "I also made a shelf out of the same and attached it to the underside of the deck and to the bulkhead. This makes the bulkhead really solid (suitable for a foot pump) and gives me some storage in a generally unused space. The shelf was three pieces in a \_/ shape, giving me a trapezoidal tube of about ten litres volume. I put drain holes in the shelf where it connected to the bulkhead." Sounds like a good idea. But, what happens to your gear stored there when you invert in surf and the contents of the cockpit, unless restrained, are free floating? Do you have a front closure for the shelves that restrains gear but doesn't restrict access?
