Hey Ed,
Looks good! Are you leaving the top of the dash green? Mine is natural mahogany and I'm keeping it that way. The lower kick panels that you're replacing, are you going to use mahogany veneered plywood? Mine were in good shape and so I've refinished them. I still have the decks to do yet do they won't go back in till the last. I was down Sunday to check on my boat. Out side storage again this year so it's wrapped. Continued good luck on yours!

Bill,
Thank you! Yeah..the dash top was canvassed green originally on this model..you can see it in the original brochure, so I fiberglassed and epoxied it with West System..and then painted it the same time I did the cabin top. The decks and upper varnish work is done, except for build coats when it gets warm enough. Right now, I'm diving into replanking the transom. Fun stuff! Not TOO mush rot underneath..nothing that I can't fix. It'll get all new boards on it. Should be great fun to do.
