The change of route from NZ to Chile and cruising northern Patagonia reducing needed food from 180 to 100 days and making bilge keels neccecites and permittes many changes.
Now I need only 100 hundred liter water. My green plastic can holds 5.5 liters. 6 will be below my seat, 10 will be below my bed. That makes 88 liters. In addition I will have 12 one liter plastic bottles 6 on each side in the eating room.
The bilge keels will move the lateral area aft so I have to move the masts aft also.
The day have been spent making mockups for these changes.
