DIY Project Trophy - Cuddy Cabin Restoration pt 3

[@vaneboating4949]

Very well explained. Thanks

I ripped out the cabin liner in our cuddy and the exposed surfaces are extremely rough but I'm going to install a cushioned liner instead of doing what you're planning to do. Way less work and cost plus it adds a little insulation. There's a big variety of liner material available on the market. The one I tore out was like felt but the one I'm installing is foam-backed plastic with millions of little dot-holes and a color that matches our boat's color-theme. Interesting...your upholstery fabric matches our 31 year old Wellcraft. I am impressed by your preparation and your presentation.

Something to try in the future for fillets is once you get the thickened putty in place, use the rounded edge of your yellow spreader or even a cheap silicone kitchen spatula with a rounded edge. You get aa 2 for 1 in that it establishes the radius and cleans up the excess putty at the same time.

Thanks, Joseph. I’ll try that for sure! Thanks for your suggestion - everyday is a learning experience.

Thanks for watching my next Video. You could make a drinking game from my mistakes, but that's part of the journey. Enjoy.

I have the same boat and I love what you did with the switches and controls. I hope you have a video on that piece coming soon!

@@jignasolo I don’t have any footage of the Switch Panel, but when I do the Carbon Fibre during the Topside Project, I can show how I made my own wiring harness and fixed the Gauge Panel. Thanks for watching, I hope there is something useful for you.
