Thanks sandbarDan,
I've been through your restoration process a few times and I'm sure I will visit it a few more times as I do mine. Your project was an inspiration for mine...great job by the way! I sanded the bildge area to refoam, reglass and re-gel until I looked at a few transoms here then checked mine. All that discolored wood will be gone soon...Well, I hope mine turns out nearly as good as yours
