I'm having some problems with the casework on the interior of the
boat - specifically where the vertical plywood panels in the cabin
meet the lower part of the hull. The worst are the panels running
fore and aft underneath the main cabin settees/nav station/sink
cabinet area. The plywood has started to degrade due to standing
water in one of its previous lives. Has anyone ever rebuilt this
casework? So far, the options I am considering are 1) removing the
worst panels and glassing in new,
2) using epoxy resin to "rebuild" some of the areas, or 3) cutting
out the damaged wood and sistering new lower portions to the existing
uppers.
I'll probably wait until the weather is drier to start on this work.
Any thoughts on restoring/rebuilding?
Thanks, Maryann
