Hey guys,

has anyone ever removed this cabinet?

replaced the carpet and there is a gap between the cabinet and the galley seating area that is carpeted.

Sorry, haven't removed that cabinet but wondering what you replaced the carpet with? Did you heat the carpet to get the glue to release?

I replaced it with carpet and used an antimicrobial pad. Had no issues with the old carpet and pad sticking. Kept the old piece of carpet laid it on top of the new one for the pattern. Left a little extra along the pattern line and it went in real easy. Had a buddy help for a few hours. Took a day. I got a quote for 5 grand.....it’s a BOAT!!!

The wife picked out the carpet...honestly I’m getting ready to change it already. Reupholstered all the rattan stuff and replaced all the shades. Added baseboard molding in the hallway and added wood on the stair stringers. Only thing left is to figure out the side sections going up the stairs

Can you post the info on the shades? Those look really good.

 

[spikedaddy99]

Love the shades. Carpet? Pretty busy for me.

 

[Mac Magic]

Yeah. I kind of agree with the too busy for the carpet but it’s 10 times better than the original and I’m itching to change it already. Shades. Home Depot. I’ll post what they are when I get back home because I kept the original shades in the boxes. I reupholstered the panels on the side of the windows. Got rid of the old fabric. And the top panels got rid of the rattan if you noticed. Looks a shit ton better. And all the rattan at the bottom of the sofas.

 

[Mac Magic]

The shades are the springs window fashions ordered from Home Depot.
Single cell light filtering Grey whisper cordless control. Bottom Up, Top down

I got 2 bottom up top down for the salon and 2 bottom up only for the galley and Dining area.

Thanks. I assume they can ship as well

Yes, they do.
Boat Outfitters was a pleasure to deal with for my needs.

They are great. I had a counter top made for my grill in the cockpit and an aluminum frame door hatch an some other miscellaneous items. Never been disappointed. Not best picture but you get the idea.

Gentlemen,

The base on the vacuum cleaner is rusted. Has anyone ever had this issue and is there a replacement part?

thanks,
Steve
