Extra sleeping place in the salon

We have created an extra sleeping place on the starboard side of the saloon, see attached photos
and then also replace the upholstery after 36 years we are very happy with it 
Greeting Fred

 

Thanks a lot Fred for this useful achievement. 
Would you please give some additional advices to those who want to make the same....

Hi Gerard,
what i did is the following.
* measure length of sofa
* size between sword case and bench
* buy 9 mm waterproof plywood
* saw 2 sheets of 70cm by 40cm
* buy 4 pcs hinge lock bar
* 4 legs of hardwood 40 x40 mm I still had these in the shed
* saw out plywood with lip, make it wide enough so that you have good support, see photo
* with make 4 slots in the sofa at the same height as the shelves in the sofa itself so that the cushions are flush with slots 10 mm.
 For my sailing friends who would like to see it live you are welcome aboard the Albatros 
this is what you mean Gerard?

Greetings Fred
