    Plywood "rigging box" panels under helm

    Moving my GPS down to what I call the "glove compartment". Tight fit, but it should work. To pull out the old cables, I took off the rigging box made of 2 wood panels imediately to the right of the step on the helm (where the hull load rating / max passenger / HP plate is located). The...

    Dash material - clean / repair / replace

    Re-doing the dash soon, moving all my instruments inside the "glove" compartment. Tight fit, but it will work. But first, the dash material is awful. Seems like a vinyl of some type. Can't get it clean, tried the usual (even BKF, I believe). Does anyone know what can be used to clean...

    Getting the Grady color back

    Removing the old name and moving the reg numbers, the original color of the boat is obvious. The gelcoat needs work, no doubt, but I don't think it's that bad. Wondering if starting with rubbing compound has worked for you, or if wet sanding was needed. Thanks.

    Voyager 248 - hatch glass separates from frame

    Hello all, The glass separates from the alum frame when I open the hatch. I noticed the riser arm pushes up by the glass, not by the frame, and I guess over time this happens. Obviously, when it rains I get a couple of drops in the cabin. What adhesive / sealant / glue should I use to glue...
