Anybody has a cool idea where to store the hatchboards ....

They seem to flop around on the quarterberts and are more or less constantly in once way.

WHo has a cool idea

I like to wedge the hatch boards between the side of the engine compartment and the quarter berth cushion.

I had a sumbrella bag made with three compartments --one for each board . the two smaller boards on one side and the large board on the other . a velcro flap keeps them in the compartments. This method keeps the varnished finish protected and I store them against the starboard side of the engine cover in the quarterberths
