On my previous
boat and on present
boat, I converted the hanging locker to be used for storing plastic
storage boxes, which I find much more efficient for storing clothes folded. I had to make a small shelf at the bottom of the locker to provide a flat, level surface for the first box to sit on, then the others just stack.
Even when I was a land dweller, I preferred chests of drawers over wardrobes... But then I'm not a smart shirt and suit kinda guy.
