Dan,
I bought mine on ebay a few years back. Who built it now, was it Lee
Thurner? I don’t know why he put it on ebay. It’s a thing of beauty and
works great in the cockpit. Instructions for building it are in back issues
of the 424 newsletter. Instructions include a drawing for a ketch table.
You can find information in back issues. Buiding such a table is a serious
project and not suggested unless you are good with woodworking. Materials
alone would probably cost over $200, and I would expect it to take about 100
hrs to fabricate. You might find someone who would be willing to build one
for you.

I own a sloop. I just finished refinishing the table and I made
modifications to allow a 2kw honda generator to stow underneath the table
top. I had to cut the bottom of the table off to raise it and I extended
the distance between the legs to allow the generator to fit. Photo
attached. I have yet to remount it in the cockpit.

I saw a table once that was just a top to a LPG box on a 424 ketch. It was
in Haverstraw, NY and sold a long time after I purchased mine. I wonder who
purchased it – it had an Irish name which I forget. But the table was
really nice.

Bob,

I don’t know about the boat in Haverstraw, but you also saw an LPG box top
table on Silverheels (photos attached), compliments of a PO. It’s a handy
shelf platform out there for binoculars, guidebook, anything I want to reach
from the helm underway, but adding wings fold-down to the box to have a
really functional cockpit table has been on my to-do list for quite a while.
I don’t think it’ll be difficult or expensive to do, depending on how much
of a showpiece I want, but in reality I rarely dine out there so it’s still
on The List.

Hi Tor,

I forgot about your table the other one was varnished real all round.

By the way, ‘Miss Kathleen’ is now laying in New Zealand. My friends are
looking to stay a while.

There was a detailed description of one in issue 8 of our old newsletter. I
have it captured in a .doc file if iterested.

Dan,

I am attaching a copy of a project that was in issue 8 – at one time I was
indexing all the issues – that is cutting a pasting the material into a word
document. I have most of the first 29 issues completed. They are in two
formats -first just list of short comments made and sorted by topic and
the second part is a collection of larger projects. All are in word format.

That’s the table I have. Nice item. It would be expensive and tedious to
build but well worth it.
