I had a closer look today using a mirror on a stick through the port in the
back of the quarter berth and it appears that it was designed to be a locker
but a hole was never cut in the top of the port side corner seat.   The
"lid" seems to be glued onto the top of the seat with Sikaflex or similar
that will have to be cut through with a long blade.  I was able to insert a
kitchen knife between the lid and the top of the locker, but the 40 year old
Sikaflex has hardened.  Maybe when it warms up a bit more it will soften and
I will be able to cut it.

My 1981 C&C34 has a starboard propane tank locker/compartment and a port
compartment.  The port locker could be used for whatever was convenient --
spare propane tank is one possible use.  I keep cleaning supplies and pee
bottle.  It is such a simple locker that it seems unlikely to have been an
option.  Look for hinges -- I bet another poster is correct that it got
painted or somehow stuck shut.  Maybe you'll find riches inside when you get
it open!

Subject: Stus-List 1981 C&C 34 - second propane locker? 

 

My 1981 C&C 34 has a propane locker on the starboard side of the helm seat.
The locker has a hinged lid.  On the port side of the helm seat there is a
similar seat but the "lid" does not open.  Has anyone opened this up and
utilized the space for storage?  

 

Thanks.
