This is probably not exactly what you are looking for but I'm in the process of adding a shockwave suspension seat to my TC24. It's part of a larger update to the cabinetry but I think I can maintain the original size of the galley cabinet (temporarily replaced by a large aluminum box. I also...

Regarding painted nonskid, I've had good luck with interlux inter-grip nonskid additive, I used it on a swim step, and it provided secure grip while still being comfortable enough to sit on while wearing a bathing suit. It had more of a finely textured plastic and less of a sandpaper feel. For...

Lots of good info in the other posts above here. I recently we-wired my whole boat and found the following resources very helpful: Boatowners Mechanical and Electrical Manual by Nigel Calder https://www.amazon.com/dp/0071790330?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1 This book pretty...

Nice work and good call on getting that rotting core out of there. I like the cabinetry and flooring.

I replaced what was left of my rivets with stainless steel binding posts and a sealing washer. This avoids the globs of sealant inside the boat (detailed on page 3 of this thread: http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=14439&highlight=

I finally got my TC24 hull #2 project in the water and got a guest slip next to my friend's TC24 in Santa Barbara for the 4th of July.

I recently re-painted the lower cover on my 2013 silver Honda BF135's. I used Moeller Marine 025516 Engine Paint Color: Honda Oyster Silver Metallic and Moeller Marine 025519 Clear Coat Lacquer both in spray cans. It was pretty easy job, most of the old paint peeled right off with some...

I repainted the interior on my TC24. For the walls and ceiling I used EzPoxy primer (1 coat) and then 3 coats of Hatteras Off White which was very close to the original base color. I mixed in quite a bit of the EZ Poxy flattening agent which they stopped producing unfortunately. It turned out...

I have a TC24 with twin Honda 135's (I bought Tim's boat from the "growing up salty" videos. If (when) I re-power, I will look for something lighter, possibly Yamaha 115 or maybe the suzuki 140's (almost 140lb less for the pair) The boat has plenty of power with the 135's, but when standing at...
