The cabin door on PILGRIM has a curtain that snaps into place. Decided, like a feral cat, to mark my territory.

@Giles that’s a “baller” move

@SKT said in Giles and Paula's Great Retirement Adventure:
Will this information allow forum users to contact you at sea and ask important questions like when something will be back in stock?
Yes

@louisbosco had to laugh at that one—- close but no cigar Louis

@Giles how exciting is that? !!

Beautiful

That's awesome! Two things I noticed: The incredible amount of room in the compartment including the head room and I like the camera mounted so you can keep an eye on the area when you're underway. That's pretty smart!!

Headroom is brilliant, I have to dip my head a tad, but really just a tad....
The camera is a cock-up. I ordered it, then decided that I would prefer an Infra Red camera in there, so deleted it from the spec, with a view to retrofitting an IR. Obviously, a lost-in-translation moment, I'm hoping they say, "oh fuck it, you may as well keep it"........:hand_with_index_and_middle_fingers_crossed:
