Quite a good mix.

Granite
Thanks to my friends at TNC Granite we are able chose from a various different finishes of stone for the galley (kitchen to anyone who doesn't speak boat).
I don't know how common it is to use a solid stone worktop for marine use but for me it really compliments the exclusive use of natural, traditional materials such as wood, brass, bronze, copper, stainless steel and glass.
Granted it may seem a little premature fitting a kitchen sink to a boat that doesn't have a steering wheel yet, but it is important to know the fit and finish we're going for and the various options available right from the beginning.
