Ideas for organizing 370 galley cabinets for cruising? So far, she's been just been a fisher, but I'm hopeful for Autumn cruising this year.
Thanks,

Boat US magazine had past articles on provisioning boats for cruising. Hopefully, you can access past issues.
Yes, thank you. What I have seen is specific to larger trawler / pilot house style cruisers. The 370 is much more limited in space and doors/drawers are much more narrow. Hopefully a 370 / 360 owner on here has cruised. Fingers crossed!

I use lots of small clear tupperware like containers to store different items. My essentials cruising items:
Electric water pot (boils water much faster than stove), great for instant foods, oatmeal, and making cooking on the stove faster.
Mini Nespresso coffee maker.
Battery powered motion detector lights, great for the bathroom when everyone is asleep. Also when you come on the boat when electricity is off, you can see.
Memory foam as replacement for cushions or on top of cushions. Makes it much more comfortable.
Dometic fridge, freezer (cooler style) for the cockpit. I run it off an extension cord and leave on the deck.
Plastic cups, dishes, etc.
I have large bins of snacks under the v berth. Foods in one cabinet, utensils-dishes-cups in another.
I also have a table which i swap with the helm chair when we arent runnning. We tend to eat our meals at the helm area. I use the moveable electronics console to create a flat surface where i can put food.
I have a 330 express but they share a lot of the same space issues.

This is the helm table for my 305 express. Fits on the seat mount, it can be spun around and has a sliding mount so it can be adjusted. It’s a solid 1-5in cherry slab. It makes the helm area so much more functional. It’s easy to swap back and forth between that and the chair as needed.
