The vent and its cap I bought out of the states...the SS plate and the fiberglass box (under) I made....I still have to put the drain hole in (where my finger is), I'll sleeve it with a SS tube. I was lucky to have a good spot below for the box with out being in the way.
Got one on each side.
Yeh the personal image seemed more appropriate.
Ciao, Ciao

Hey Man - Network problems. Love to join the group. I'll see what I can do.

Yeh...I sent one with more pics after your fist reply about looking like PB,,,I;ll try again. Starts out "on my wat out the door"

also sent another previose one...this is a real mystrey

just sent again...3rd time....the last two I just did reply....this time I rewrote the address.....did you get it?

No way...I'll send it again

sent ya an email yesterday...all is well

I don't have any digitized pics of the old interior but I'll take some of the old hard copies.
The trick with the chart table hinges was having it not wieghted while up or down...while unlocked it will stay in either possision.
I still have another moving piece to go in the galley....it a "sandwich bar sort of thing that will have a cool kind of mechanisim that alows it to fold out of the way under that horizontal bar ( SS wraped in paper) comming off the cabinet near the sink.
Did you notice the dogable hinges...they have an elongated slot so I can dog the whole hatch down...the rubber's not in yet so they are normally down...you can see my fingers holding it up.
The counter and sink is like corian...I don't remember the brand name...it works with wood working tools...I didn't do this piece with my hand, it was a local shop with a big shaper.
The trick is to consider the expansion and contraction in the design...I have an "under cut" in the wood (back and side) of an extra 3mm to alow for this movement. Its been through all the seasons and hasn't bottomed out ....yet!
The stuff can be heated in an oven and bent over a mold...and laminated with absolutly no visible seam!
Great stuff.
I'm in the hotel in Dubai laying over...will be back in Yemen tomorrow and will try and send the pics....I dont like using this forum for this because It takes me so long to down load, and If I try and spell check I get a font error and have to rewrite everything....with out...and that just embareses me!

I'm jones'un now.
I love the boat...that inside steering station is very nice...I could'nt get your vid to work...are you back in the water now?

Thanks man...I going there now..............
