Cabin Fever
Redoing my Cabin... Not that there was much to start with but it's small and I'm looking for ideas...
I've seen some pics of small venture cabins and they look like little apartments. Lol Anyone have pics to share?
My pics are here (don't laugh lol)

Re: Cabin Fever
Looking at your pics of the deformed hull...think about how much more the boat weighs when filled with several gallons of rain water; flexing at the end of a trailer bunk seems inevitable.
Re: Cabin Fever
Well can't really help on your cabin but wanted to complement you on your blog. Nicely done.

I'm sorry, but the first picture of Jack Nicholson from The Shining made me LOL. I couldn't help myself

Re: Cabin Fever
I loved this post and have learned a lot. My 26S was torn from its mooring and crashed on the rocks. Thanks to the flotation I was able to salvage the boat and the new motor I just placed on it. My boat sits in the yard and has two large (about 2ftx1ft) each on the port side of the boat. I'm not sure one can repair a hole this big but it would be a great project for a skilled craftsmen or someone with the passion to take on this job. I'm neither so I may either part out the boat or post for sale. Thank you for such a great story well told and enjoyable I look forward to more.
