We have a new-to-us, 2001 Scamp 13 deluxe model with the larger bed. Storage is scant! (Especially compared to our old Boler with no fridge and smaller bed.) To the right of the stove is a cabinet which goes from ceiling to bench seat with one small door in the upper third, so there's a deep space below the single shelf. I'm thinking of adding an access door to the lower 2/3 and more shelves in the upper 1/3, but would like to know how others have used that space -- or just ideas on how to proceed.

Hi Anne,
Those models are rare to see out in the wild, so I think most of us are unfamiliar with this layout. I've only seen about two of these in 10 years and don't really know this space you are referring to. Is it this floorplan?
One thing you have to be careful of with Molded Fiberglass is what is serving as a structural support for the roof. I.E. in the standard Scamp 13 the 1970's looking wrought iron coming from the base cabinet to the roof is a structural support. Some have removed that wrought iron and within a year or so they begin to get roof sag and the entry door starts warping.
Can you get some photos of the space so we can see what we're dealing with. I think it is a very good idea and you may want to check out my PVC closet shelf frame for installing shelves if you open the space up.
