Our Table

On Magic Moods our Moody 40, the table leaves used gravity. Maybe a re-design to the way ours worked. Surived 3 years of living aboard with numerous parties, even used it as a bench to do some of the nasty jobs.

I'm stuffed then - will have to use bars underneath as extra support. Very nice looking work indeed.

Here is the underside. A rotating collar allows the table to be swivelled and provides a more stable base. The table itself is fitted onto a couple of sliding tracks (actually Harken dinghy mainsheet track) so it can be moved and positioned according to the number that are sitting.
