Anyone have any ideas on a way to remove and install the table in the 16 quickly (without tools) I like it available but my wife prefers is out of the way when just crusiing around. Plus it gives more room to get in and out of the berth. Thanks Brian

Unless I'm missing something, simply loosen the three black screws a bit and lift the table off.

That's what I was hoping for. Mine has two bolts with washers. New a wrench.

The C-Squirt also has the same setup with the studs and 3 hand knobs. We also wanted more distance between the back of the table and the seat back. So we moved the table forward and use only the 2 forward studs to secure the table. Then we wanted to improve the stability of the table. So I cut a 3/4 inch dowel to the exact length of the distance between the floor and the table and attached a rubber chair foot protector to each end and supported the outer edge of the table with it. Now we have more room between the back of the table and the seat back and a LOT more stability on the table, yet it is easy to remove. With this approach, your wife might not mind having the table in place more often.
