Somehow I've missed this build! Great stuff, great work, and a fine looking boat. I'll be tuning in from now on.

Thanks for taking these detailed pics. I'm thinking how to do my companionway framing. I like how you did yours.new to sail wrote: ↑Thu Sep 22, 2016 2:47 pm
I plan to plug the holes after I get the paint on. I am going to varnish the wood after that.

Re: Vg20 finally underway
Wow I just looked thru this entire thread and all I have to say you have been doing an impressive job. This build inspired me to build my own companion way slides and make an addition to the galley on my sailboat.
Build on and keep posting pictures.

Thanks Tony, Bogie and Ruben,
I appreciate your remarks, but you are going to make my head swell and I know my wife wouldn't like that

Re: Vg20 finally underway
Weather turned nice, but still cool. I decided to work on the galley, but should have done more homework. The alcohol stove is nice except it has changed how I wanted things to look. Its bigger than I thought it would be. I had to decide where to start cutting. One of my hardest decisions.
I thought I would start planning the trim before I did any serious cutting.
I built a type of sled to install the stove on because I found out after the fact that it is a clam style opening to install the alcohol. So I needed a way to slide the stove out far enough to open.
Cutting out the front of the galley hopefully will work out. Kind of planned on the fly.
The next step will be cut the counter top to fit and some cosmetic work. Keeping my fingers crossed that I didn't make a mistake with my plan of action.
