Excellent Mark, That's just how I'll reinstall the furniture. While I have the furniture I have been working on the rub rail. Now that I know how to handle the crack in the gel coat and I know how to install the new stainless steel fasteners , I went ahead and complete removed both the port and...

This is the scale of my furniture and the feet. I'm really hot on the idea of using adhesive under the feet and then screws at the top of the panels. What do you think? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9mqpi ... sp=sharing

Thanks everyone, Mark, very good point I don’t want to make matters worse. Canvas pictures forthcoming. When you screwed your furniture back down how did you ensure you screws into the middle of your epoxy plug? Thatway, all the patch kits at Spectrum were discontinued so I am surprised Iboats...

Interesting. I wonder if I could use VHB to secure my furniture back to the deck? A 1 ounce CD gelcoat kit from Gelcoat Products was the same price as a gelcoat kit you have to mix the color, Thanks

Bob thank you for the help. I’m mostly concerned about the hairline crack. The inside of the boat looks good, no cracks in the gel coat all the way around. So I will route out the little crazes and gel coat. First time experimenting with gel coat so read up on the tint. Big rain squall coming...

I removed the throttle assembly, took pictures and labeled all disconnects. The long bolts were very challenging. Like you said, they were installed from panel to conduit. I left a couple nuts in the conduit. I broke loose the bottom of the starboard panel all-around. It's well attached at the...

Mark, I did take the rivets out of the area aft the subject, and will use your idea when I reinstall. I'm following your lead from your previous posts and am very glad that you responded. Tomorrow I'm going to try and remove the throttle linkage from the starboard side. I think I have to reach...

Need a little help. I am drilling and filling the old rotten rivets . I'm in the process of taking out the inner panels on my CD 16. All the rivets are out but the panel is stuck at the top as indicated. Maybe some adhesive is preventing me from shifting the panel out. Any ideas? Try this...
