That does it! I'm painting my bulkheads.

Nice refit, EE. How about more pics of that L shaped galley?

If you decide to paint check here for a color matchto the existing off-white, it's a funny beige/pink/white


I'll get some more pics of the galley, you can see it a bit in the warpy mirror...not a lot to it, I was going for function and as little weight as possible

Thanks ! Still have to redo that table. And a couple more things on the galley, as well as a power/nav station that will go under the port portlights. I really like the extra bulkhead that makes up the hanging locker even tho I lost some space on the starboard banquette.

Thanks ! The table was the usual Chrysler veneer, but I was trying a faux red mahogony stain, and it was too dark.

The galley is a clear piece of ply, very little grain. And on that I streaked in some red mahogany stain for "grain", then some brown mahogany stain, then varnish. It came out more like what I wanted, so I'll replace the table top the same way. There's an organizer that will go on the back of the keel stand that will cover that dark wood.
