So I've been doing some mock-up on the dish holder/drain rack part of the galley.

The plan so far is to have the plates and bowels stowed in a rack high in the cabinet and the mugs and glasses stowed in a "tray" below.

Both will be accessible while stowed.
The dish rack will hinge/ rotate down and rest just above the counter out side the cabinet near the sink....at the same time the mug tray will rise up, tilt forward and slid over the edge of the backsplash so when draining the water will drip to the counter top..

Its probably over engineered, but I've had idle hands and the boat is far away.

Keep in mind these pictures are mock-up only...the dish rack will be from
mostly plastic.

The space dog pictures are a section/profile (side view)…the “head” is the dish rack and the rectangular “body” is for the mugs/glasses.

The plywood back represents the cabinet.
