  • the 15"D x 18"H x 70"L space between frames 6 and 7, which sandwich the forward beam, will provide easy access storage space.
  • the space will be divided into 4 separate compartments, 2 for the galley, and 2 for the head area.
  • the 'egg carton style' reinforcement provided by the 'ceiling', 'shelf' and dividers between the frames will more than compensate for any weakening due to the cutouts
