Hi Mark & Diana,
We too have the center post in our 06 cd25. I don't think I would remove it. It looks to provide support. We just store items in different size plastic tubs and grab the one we want. You sometimes have to remove one to get to the other but its efficient, the tubs are not too heavy and everything inside stays clean and dry. The coffee maker has a home on the shelf next to the head so hoses for the shower don't get tangled or end up with something setting on them. Directly under the sink on the shelf is where we keep the satellite TV stuff and mounted on the cabinet wall behind the seat we have the c-talk for the Ray Marine equipment mounted. We do keep some cans of soup loose in this area. I don't have any pictures to show but we found 2 longer tubs that fit on the bottom, 2 smaller tubs to fit on top of them and 2 smaller tubs about the size of a loaf of bread that fit on top. A total of six tubs purchased at Linens-n-things. The tubs are about 8" in height. We kind of like this organization method, it keeps things separate and like I said clean and dry.
