Storage in a 32 Fountain
 

Well this is emberassing. After telling itlldo not to buy a 32 I suddenly find myself interested in one.:D :drink: Whats the storage situation like? Any storage in the cabin of a 32? How much room in the cockpit side compartments and under the rear bench? Just need enough room for pfd's, fenders, and a few other odds and ends.

Normal storage under v berth as in all of the Fountains. Storage under the sink and ice box area. If you want to remove the porta pot in the Lounge it could free up more space. Does have a hanging locker in the cabin which is nice (I miss that). Cockpit has under back seat storage, two small side compartments for dock lines and a glove box. Other than that not much else. Very fun boat though

Hanging locker should help a lot. Didn't realize they had one. Will at least make room for life jackets and fenders that can't fit under the rear bench.

Ive got a nice one in the classifieds if you are interested. 92, 32 Fountain and you will not find one in better condition.

It ain't that big. Big enough for a couple pairs of britches and a couple shirts.

I keep 2 large bumpers/fenders/whatever, 2 anchors, a couple ropes, jump box, 2 seat cushions and still have plenty room for more under the rear bench. The sides compartments hold quite abit too. 3 ggod size storage compartments under the bed for the extra life jackets and stuff you want on board but not use.

:drink:

Right- I put the life jackets in the v bearth

Ok, good to know. Didn't remember the V berth storage compartments being that big in my dads 35.

Thanks for the heads up but I'm looking for a little newer, somewhere around 98 - 2000.

who was it that cut holes in their cabin and added my storage space?

I remember the thread but not who it was. I also remember thinking it was way too much work for me. :drink: :D

I would guess US1 Fountain? The resident Mr. fixit of the fountain owners forum..:D

i don't have stones big enough to cut my rig:eek:

Nope, not me. I did look into it this winter, under the cabin seating for my AC pump and strainer, but there is at most 5-6inches of depth right against the cabin floor stringer, then it goes to nothing as you go towards the sides of the boat. I didn't see it worth the effort.

My thoughts exactly:D

Here ya go Nancy. :D
