Congratulations... it looks great. Now that you have that behind you, what are you going to do with all your free time? :D

Nicely done, I really like that you did the follow up step by step instructions and the before and after photos of the finished job along with the safety tips. Great project and results.

Thank you,
Alan
It's a good life on the

This is great! exactly what I needed to know as I am doing thsi job this weekend or next....

I have the OEM fabric just dangling from the ceiling ( cabin walls of a sailboat) throughout the boat with the ugly glue foam mold mix showing underneath....

I was thinking of paint, doing a wood slat ceiling, or I have been checking out the wall/floor panel coverings at Lowes to see if the bead board panel would work but it seems to thick to bend tothe hull curve..

I wish I could say I'll use my free time for sailing at this point Al but...its just not ready yet. :( I have removed all the interior wood including the stern bulkhead to get it redone (I'm getting quotes on all new wood now), rudder is off for touching up, tiller is out getting revarnished, going to redo the wiring and add LED lights...all these things are ongoing and in progress but I hope to have it all completed this month of May so I can get it splashed in June...hopefully!

Thanks, Bryan
