21 Hull #136...Restoration...Started

[Islandtrader]

I have decided it is prudent to work from the bow to the stern. That way no jumping around willy nilly

So the first couple things done are the lift eye and v-bunk filler. This is a S/S piece that I had a friend of mine modify so I could make it work for the 21.



V-Bunk



More to come as every day is an adventure.

Is that daylight coming throug the deck or do you have some slick recessed lighting in there?

Probably holes for pop up cleats. Boat is looking awesome Terry!

Scott no, but now you have given me an idea...plenty of room there.

Tony, you hit it on the nail...thanks

Pop up cleats going in...

Say what??? I thought that was the only way to do things!!!!! Looking good Terry!!!!

Some more pics of things being done...99% of everything on the boat was assembled and holes drilled before painting. However I swear that either there are in fact gremlins or when I was drilling holes I just said looks good and in fact it wasn't.

While putting in the head covers and hinges, I had to re-drill 4 of the 20 holes, because they did not line up no great tragedy. since they are covered by the hinge.

Getting closer now to tackling the instrument panel and gauges. Now if only can remember what that red wire was for

[FossilMan]

Ooooh, that was well thought out. It's all in the details.

[castalot]

The red wire is for the three way switch for the cabin light

After all that work please dont ever let anyone use that head. Not even the Admiral.

Looks really incredible, almost there!
