Re: Flooring and cabinets

Re: F32 trailer?
can I ask why? The trailer would cost thousands and get used how often, then you have to store that monster and you'll need a tow rig? I thought about making my own but at $250 to $300 to haul out or launch whats the point. You'd be pulling well over 13,000 lbs.

That "block" should be a zinc and grounded to your battery. Electrolysis is different where you boat and the type of water your in. For example if your at a active marina with lots of power running you'll want the extra protection opposed to myself i'm in a secluded cove alone on a private...

Re: Teak flooring question
Thanks guys, and I'm using 80 grit to take down the bare minimum, it clogs the paper some but I don't want to gouge and rip down too much, just the ugly layers of dark finish the PO put on. Thanks for the support and pic compliments, I've decided to powder coat the trim ring as well as cleats, flag ...
