....and bought the Mahogany for the seat pedestals. My friends Son
( who works with another friend making custom wood stairways) got me 2
pcs, 12 ft. by 8 inches, by 3/4. for $80.00. Once he's assembled them
using the temporaries as templates, I'll sand, stain and seal them.Re-
install with the seats in the spring, and I've covered that. Boat
interior is seat less. All I have to do is remove the old seat mount
from the inner wall for clearance. I'm giving the old seat bracket to
my friend restoring his 63 31' Steel Hulled Roamer Riviera to be used
as a left side wheelhouse seat.
I put the shop vac on , as I said I was; and got a lot of water out of
the block. No chance of ice in there this time.Vacuumed the boat of
leaves. Sprayed all electrical points on relay solenoids with Lithium
Grease, tarped it and done.
I've also removed both windshields to see if I can take them apart and
get the glass out. I must have patience, as they are Stainless screwed
in an Aluminum frame . This will, I hope, cut cost on replacing them.
Now, if I only had a close friend in the glass business.
It's not always what you know, as opposed to WHO you know that helps
in life.
