Yeah. I was looking at that once upon a time too.
Blue heron did something similar but all his pics are gone now.
The cabin port side has a flip up compartment for head and a cushion on top
Starboard cabin has a door lower and a shelf above. I plan to put a camp stove in storage that I can utilize on long trips on deck and I have a perc. Coffee maker for my overnight trips.
I looked pretty hard at those above but decided I’d save deck space. And have stuff I can move around.
I thought about flip down storage, transom storage, deck storage, I’ve given up and going to make original work for me and once I boat for while make changes.
Biggest things are the teak racks and adding gaff holders in cockpit on sides for me. I got rid of my fighting chair and will probably replace with teak rocket launcher table.
As you noted storing above seems much easier than storing under.
