Thanks! I can't wait to put on the finishing touches such as bolsters and a matching canvas bimini. Now all I need to do is get a little fish blood on the deck.

Very nice work - a real beauty. Congratulations - work well spent !

How are you planning to do the bolsters ? With starboard as a backing or wood ? I cut 1/4" starboard to cover the bolster area for now, until I cushion it up ( the previous owner had cut (4) 5" speaker holes in the area !!! And I did not want to fill and glass 'em ).

FYI: The 1/4" starboard I used does warp in direct sunlight and looks crappy - even though it is screwed down every (6) inches ?! I want to re-do and was wondering what you, or anyone else, would recommend. I used starboard for the "0" maintenance..

I asked this in the wrong place so I'll ask again. Where did you get that great rub rail from? All I can find is the Taco thick all rubber one.
Thanks,BigMike
