After we bought our current boat and began preparing it for living aboard, we found a need for several small items of “furniture” that would be very nice to have. We couldn’t just buy them in a store however, since the places we wanted to put them had unusual or non-standard dimensions. Lucky for us, Paula’s dad, a retired civil engineer, enjoys making custom furniture as a hobby. Not only is he superbly skilled, but has an affinity for the nautical touch having been a live-aboard boater himself. The name of his small furniture enterprise is “MortMade”. Below are items he made for us that fit beautifully on the boat. Click on each picture to read how the creation came together.
