This is only for the R-27 and R-25 folks, I think.
We are lazy and have not done a cool refit of the cave like others have. Instead, the cave is divided into two areas. The part easily accessible from the cabin (beneath the lift-up cover), and the part only tiny people would dare sleep in (part of that amazing "sleeps six" exaggeration our friends at Ranger Tugs concocted). For the former space, we keep it neat and organized. For the latter, it is storage of various junk (fishing rods, tool boxes, life jackets, food, unwanted things), creating visual chaos. Add to that the perennial hassle of what to do with the cushion that fits on top of the table. We use that cushion regularly now as our "couch", and getting it out involves an explosion of stuff.
To solve this problem we now use the cushion to wall off the part of the cave that stores junk. Since the cushion is not square, you have to monkey with its orientation, but if you remove the pole for hanging clothes, the cushion wedges nicely behind the rear seat of the table, between the forward entrance to the cave and the port bulkhead. It cleans things up rather nicely and makes the cushion easy to remove and put back.
I suspect many have done this trick before, but I didn't see it on the website.
