I have enclosed my pilotberth but instead of running the backrest of the settee up, I set the verticle element back 4 inches. I divided the space into three areas, the center being double the other two. Four doors, the two center opening from fore and aft. This gives a large center section for large items, and two smaller spaces, one for an entertainment cabinet, and the other for storage. The space in front is perfect for charts, wine, gloves, books, etc. I doesn't make the boat seem smaller at all. You do have to cut off the raised portions at each end of the seatback entrance to the pilotsberth and replace it with a new routered cap, but it looks like factory. I mounted the TV on a slide so it can move slightly out of the cabinet for viewing. The space contains the TV, a separate VCR, 20 VCR tapes, a phone, and a answering machine.
