Project Log: Sunday, April 22, 2012
There was a small area of exposed hull outboard of the
galley, in the area where the plate storage rack would
go. Earlier test-fitting of the rack indicated a
need to cover the painted hull here, as it stood out too
coldly. To this end, I purchased some liner
fabric, and with trim work wrapping up in the galley, it
seemed a good time to install it.
I made a paper pattern of the inside of the locker, then
transferred it to the fabric and cut it out before
gluing it in place with spray adhesive. Most of
this would be hidden from view regardless, but the
fabric would be nicer to look at than the painted
fiberglass. |

The base of the dinette required outside corner trim to
cover the edges and end grain of the substructure.
From some 1-1/2" square blanks of solid cherry, I milled
L-shaped pieces to cover the corners as needed, and
installed them with glue. Meanwhile, I milled
several new lengths of quarter round molding and cut and
fit pieces around the remainder of the dinette base and
galley cabinet as needed. This brought these areas
to a level of completion where I could begin to think
about varnish base coats. |

At the end of the day, I masked off the pilothouse side
bulkheads and windows and applied a coat of satin
varnish to these areas. |
