Pretty amazing! Thoughtfully designed. Good use of space. Job well done.
For the next person who trys this....
Could the upper portion of the wall be designed to lay down flat, to create a counter top opposite the galley (when not being used as a potti room)? |

The Nimble Arctic/Kodiak (sailboat) is designed just that way - one wall of the head folds down to become a chart table. Considering that the head is the place that one spends the least amount of time in the cabin, it could be a more efficient use of space. While I admire the craftsmanship involved in the project that started this thread, I have concerns about the space usage and resale value. Perhaps it's just us, but the dinette table is the "hub" of activity in our boat: it's where we eat, play games, sit at the computer, read, socialize... I can't see giving that up. I guess that's another of the beauties of this boat - the ability to customize it to one's particular needs.
Best wishes,
Jim B.

Holy cow! I hope the war Dept. doesn't see this! She thinks the only boat that has a toilet is a 25 or a Cat.  Now I have rethink my 25 Pipe dream!.......................................Such a problem to have. But what a fine and pleasant problem to have. This adds a new dimension to the 22'. Well done and thank you!!!!!!!! This is a big deal for many prospective C-dory owners as well as many current 22' C-Dory owners. I bet the factory is thinking about this now.....A new option for the 22 cruiser.......The Cruiser Weekender????????
Impressive!!!!

Williamsburg,
Great job. With a folding table and a cockpit cover, the eating area problem will be solved. Most meals I eat on board are eaten in the cockpit.
As for me, being older (maybe I shouldn't bring this up) and having to go when I have to go, and single handed most of the time, I would never give up my Portipotti of my 1083 22' C-Dory. One can stand while running the boat. Can't do that with the 1986+ C-Dory's.
Now that is an extra worth keeping.
Fred

Me thinks, Fred gets the award for the oldest C-Dory afloat!

I was thinking, wow, a C-Dory in 1083! Just after the Norman Conquest of England in 1066! Now you go and spoil that mental image! 1983...1983, sorry, rings no bells, can't think of a darn noteworthy thing, except daughter Lydia's 1st birthday on October 6th...

How many oarsmen on a 1083 C-Dory and what was ramming speed?
Back to the CD22 head. I had a popup camper several years ago and the bathroom walls were solid and folded over each other so the top could be lowered. That would provide for no loss in visibility while underway.
