I am about to put saw and router to a boat buck's worth of solid surface
material. I have the galley and head counters laid out and templates made
just right but before I cut I need to figure out the salon table so I am
looking for opinions.

Some people say fiddle rails are a must and others say they just get in the
way. Rutu is designed from the beginning to be an island hopper not a world
cruiser. I could make them removable but that presents a storage problem
and puts 8 to 10 holes in the surface.
