Do you have pics? I'd love to see it!

Happy Thanksgiving! We're hanging in Corolla, NC for the holiday. Beautiful down here!

my head is original 1974, yellow/vinyl covering on the walls, I shower there no problem, my headliner looks bad, im going to replace with starboard or a type of lexan Lucky you! Our boat has been wet for so long that I don't think I'll be ok with it until I'm sure anything that could harbor mold is...

Thanks for helping try to figure it out!

what is the wood that extends off the front of the bow do

I use it to spear sailboats, and to hold my anchor.

I'm way too new to this to be a purist. The boat is still here because of you! But your photo resurfaced a mystery I thought I'd figured out. Looking at a gazillion boat photos made me wonder why our boat has the head across from the galley. Most of them have it just past the galley on the same side...

hi lizz. have you given any further thought to the galley and head? i've thought of refreshing the galley counter and the forward head for a long time, but, to be honest, that's way outside of my expertise. i also want to refresh the salon window coverings and installing new carpet throughout. i kn...

Paul, that sounds like a job. Whew. What did you put in the head? I would really like to have something water resistent enough to not need a shower curtain.

Chris is working on the aft deck today. Hopefully we'll have a deck soon! https://goo.gl/photos/xAaCyzgMWrGkeQxH6 And He looks happy doing it ! You seem to have a good sense of humor , It really helps working on a boat . Yep, or a screw loose. It is fun, though. Y'all have been so supportive. Hope ...

Maybe that's not the correct term, but it's the covering that's on any plywood walls, the v-berth and the head. I swear it's the first thing they did. Every piece of wood on the boat is on top of it. We're going to have to take the whole darn boat apart to get rid of it. But all manner of things are...

Tested a spot with a space heater and it definitely loosened it up. I'll bring a heat gun next time and let y'all know how it goes. Thanks, again! Nice to be part of the Trojan fam.

Thank, guys. I'll try heat - perfect weather for it!

Is there a smart way to remove the interior vinyl? It comes off wood pretty easily, but getting it off the hull Is a bear. There's too much mold to leave it. I'm sure the Trojan folks never thought anyone would be crazy enough to take it off, but here I am. The photos from my phone are too high res ...

And just to be sure y'all know, we'll be keeping our drinking at the dock. Bourbon on the rocks? Sure. Trojan on the rocks? Not a chance.
