ts amazing what a little cleanup and bottom paint can do.

The Formica really brightens up the interior. The locker has been removed to open up the boat. It feels much bigger inside now. The Formica is also much nicer than the cheap 1970s vintage stick-on wood grain.

The V Berth still has some problems. Ill be doing some major work on the deck this Fall or next Spring. As you can see there is some bulging in the headliner on the port side. THis is because I worked a temporary repair of the deck delamination with Great Stuff which is canned foam available at Home Depot. I did this just so I could walk on the deck without feeling the delam, during the repairs.

The wood work is starting to get finished, and the interior is cleaned up and installed.
