The refit of the pocket catamaran Squib involves a major galley renovation and the construction of new storage covers for the engine bilge.0:14 Peter and Sabina remove the existing stove to redesign the galley layout, noting that the original installation lacked accessibility and cleaning space.6:10 To improve storage, they build three lightweight frames to create a new platform above the engine compartment.11:24 These frames consist of 3-cm wooden strips filled with Styrodur insulation, designed to taper by 5 cm toward the rear to match the hull geometry.12:10 The crew measures the galley dimensions at 25-cm intervals to ensure accurate replacement of the cabinetry.8:57 Additionally, the project includes upgrading the electrical system by relocating a fuse block to provide direct protection for the heavy-gauge cables running from the battery.14:45 The team plans to fill an inaccessible, mold-prone corner behind the galley with Styrodur to eliminate a difficult-to-clean area.3:50
