Cuddy cabin storage.

[MikeMarkCA]

I have a 1996 2320. Inside the cabin under the side cushions there are two side storages. I believe it would be easy for something to slide forward out of reach under the bow section, that does NOT have a storage hatch. I'm wondering why Parker did not put a hatch under the bow section of the cuddy? If one decides to do this is there any problem structure wise to cutting into the front section and installing a hatch?

I have attached the layout drawings for your boat. I'm not exactly sure what you are referring to but this should help you. I think your talking all the way to the front in the cuddy, if so I think you coul do that.

OK, I'm not with the boat, but here is what I am talking about. Under the cushions there are two hatches where the red is. Items placed in there appear as if the can slide up under the blue section. (I Think). Under the blue section it seems like there could be even more storage but no hatch was installed under that forward cushion by Parker. Do you think it would be a bad idea to install a hatch there?

My best guess would be that the forward area is filled with foam for flotation reasons or to keep water out in case of a forward collision below waterline.

I too would like to put a locker there.

I do not have a pic but mine has a recessed storage area on port and starboard sides with a piece of starboard fitted flush. We store extra lines, t paper, charts, etc

It was done during production as part of the mold
