Organized wires and installed headliner in the head. Looks so much cleaner.


Made a few teak blocks with 3″, 4″, and 5″ curves to properly secure head fixtures.


My previous mounting method that used magnets at the bottom of these didn’t pan out. They weren’t secure enough, especially underway. This new approach is much more secure and gets them more out of the way.




After I rebuilt all the panels, I haven’t yet tried to put the door back. Surely, it did not fit. Had to trim both sides of the door and make a small lip to hide the hinge. I was also lucky to find the original door handle and lock, which I installed into the new slimmer door. Will need to hide old hole with some small teak bangs.
