Thought I would share some pics of the 22 before I fill her up with clutter. New cushions, covers, windows, curtins, and a few other touches Click on the link for a slide show.

Very Nice! Like those cushions and table a lot! Nice to see the shots of them together AND all those cushions where they're supposed to go.

Mine are done at the Amish gentleman's place, might pick them up this next week. Now I have a good idea where they go! And I'll lay them out on the floor and take a shot of them for y'all.

Thanks again for the pics, nice to see a great example of how nice it can look! I'm once again inspired!

Cheers!

wow, great work...what did you use for curtain rods...looks like wood?? thanks agian...some good ideas there for my boat.

I do't mean to hijack the thread however Kevin said "curtain rods", and this was just something that I was looking at this morning, I'm satisfied with mine however there are some broken parts that I want to replace, attached is a link to some stuff I found, I think the OEM is RECMAR 5400 CurtainMate Curtain Track, however I need to get to the boat to measure and make sure. If that s the case i will replace my track with the same but new, since the old is broken in a few spots and generally gnarly looking. I was able to get new curtains last year (my mom made them! - thanks mom!)

Nice Mariner,

My curtain tracks are good. It's my Curtain sliders the the curtains attach too that are getting a bit brittle. I have broken 1 of them on the side curtains. The curtain you show in your photo above. I have the track that partitions off the v-birth from the salon but none of the sliders or the curtain.

I will add this to my to do list now that I know were to get the parts. Thanks Much.

Alan

jmckamey, do you have the pattern you used for the cushions and would you be willing to part with them or a copy thereof? Tranquil Chaos came cushionless so need to do the entire boat - after finishing the rudder - and getting the kicker running - and rewiring the electrial - and ....

Thanks for the comments, on the horizon are radios and depth finder for bigger water but she's ready for the lake for now. KEVIN, I used 3/8" oak dowel rods for the curtians spaced off with 3/4"x3/4" squares I cut from the old windows that were removed from the boat. ALAN, I pruchased the curtian rail and slider system for the cabin separating curtian from the local rv dealer. The sections came in 36" lengths and were around $10.00 each. I used two. PAUL, I can do you one better. I had cut a complete set of cushion covers before I changed my mind on color. If you are willing to cover the shipping I will send them to you. They can be used as a pattern for cushions and covering or If you like the color you could use the fabric, if not then they could be sent to the next guy than needs them. They are just sitting around taking up space now and the first mate is sure to bring it up sooner than later.

GOOD JOB. Vary nice looking boat, If only I liked working more than I like sailing my boat could look that good. This spring I will be 64 so for me it is about sailing while I can.

I hear you, I think my next one will be as close to turn key as I can afford.
