Subject: Interior casework
Info: (12995 views) Posted: Monday 12-28-09 09:59:01 AM
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
