Depends on what tools you have but shelves and a shadow board are the best imo. as for screws etc a simple plastic cabinet with drawers from the Brico or store in their boxes on a shelf ( don't keep old screws and nails throw them away)

 

[Fr J Hackett]

Glad to hear that the Gibsea is binned it had the hallmarks of a money pit.

Here's one that is similar money and well set up, you could sail it back easily.

Surely tradition dictates that screws and the like should be kept in tobacco tins?

Wot!!! it's barely July, months to go yet and you could cross the channel and take it down the canals to mid Biscay which would leave you with some short coastal hops in familiar territory.
It's the best one yet.

No that’s something else but psychologist say one shouldn’t repress your urges……new thinking!

Indeed but this poem done for the 80th Anniversary of D-Day made me think again.
