Boat Wine Rack

Project completion on a boat is all about prioritizing, right?  Well, we enjoy our vino.  As such, one fun project Scott did in-betwixt bigger projects while we were still in Ft. Lauderdale was to make a wine rack for our galley.  We have a wine "locker" to stow bottles in bulk, but I thought it might be nice to have a place to store open bottles where they'd be easily accessed and safe while underway.  I told Scott my idea and showed him where I thought it could be installed, and he immediately got to work designing the rack with some scrap wood, a couple of dowel rods and two brackets.  The next day, we had a custom-made wine rack that holds five bottles ready for action.  Man do I love being married to a handy man!
Scott's hole saws came in handy yet again!
Taking the measurements so it fits just-so.

Dry fit and more measurements
The finished product!  A couple of brackets, some press-fit dowel rods, and some scrap wood and VOILA! Wine rack!

Looks great! We were lucky that a wine rack was installed in our boat when we bought it - very lucky! Currently we also keep some Brimley's Gold Vanilla Rum on hand for impromptu visits. Also, love the Apothic brand, my favorite is the white.

Save travels!

I'm confident in design and performance beyond any doubt. For my kitchen, I chose best wine refrigerator because I wanted a two-zone refrigerator comfortable and beautiful with a transparent door. As a result, I purchased Kaloric and can't hold back joy because it's a super device. My kitchen has found a new life and my wine is now also in safe hands)
