Cruising 2009

Although this blog was primarily a record of the build, we thought from time to time we would post a few pictures taken during our travels aboard Slow Pace. Here are some from 2009:











Seating / Sleeping

With the desmo tables removed we have comfortable seating...

... and two pullout footstalls.

A view with the cushions removed.

The footstalls have removable internal sections. Giving these a quarter turn and replacing them gives a higher footstall or extra seating at the table.
In the higher postion the stalls also support the lift out back panel to make up a double bed.

The mattress of the bed is made up of the seat & back cushion and an extra fill in piece that is stored behind the back panel.
