Finally finished what I had been putting off for years: restored the woodwork on deck. Took two weeks of daily stripping, scraping, sanding, and finishing. Maybe next year I will do the cabin.

Do you still have my phone# ? Give me call mon/tues and we will schedule some time to meet.Robert Augur

Thanks Tim, Looks like a previous owner put a dark stain over the existing varnish and covered the grain. I was pleasantly surprised to see the ribbon grain. My other surprise was to see that the rear piece w/access doors was cut from a single piece of ply.Robert Augur

Nice job, Robert...
What a difference...it looks beautiful, Robert.
Are you going to rendezvous with us next weekend during the Columbia River event? Even if you can't bring the 25 down, you can come aboard somebody else's boat for the day.
