Woodwork - Part 2

Continuing with the woodwork this past week.







Put the last coat of varnish on the door and the handrails.  Also put the vents back on the roof.




























Here is the newly varnished "vee". Don't know what else to call it!

















Installed new vents in both of the forward storage areas.





















This past week, I cut most of the trim and teak veneer for the cabin electrical chase. Laid the first coat of thinned varnish today. Will probably put down a few more coats in the next few days.  Will likely need to put one or two coats after installation depending on if I have to cut any pieces on installation.



















The new electrical closet after a few coats of varnish.  Starting to shine!





























This is the area below the electrical closet.  I cut out another piece of teak veneer to enclose this area as well. Will add a drawer or door to access the area for storage.













Decided to lay down the first coat of thinned varnish on the port side and head.  Need to order more varnish!






While things dry, I decided to install the rotary helm.  I needed this installed to make sure I have clearance with the new electrical panels I install in the door.


















Decided to install the wheel.  The rudders turn!

It is a 24" wheel.  Big enough to stand on the starboard side of the raised cabin and still steer.

The owl is too keep the crows and their poop off the boat.
