Interior finally done (lots of pics)

[Wiggo]

Sorry to bore y'all, but I'm over the moon with this lot. Got the two free standing chairs back yesterday, along with the timber inserts and a couple of other odds and ends...

The helm seat and sofa with the radio and the wooden insert in place:

The two chairs port side:

Neil used the last of the leather to make up a few scatter cushions. A fine day to be out, as well:

Just to be flash, the table lamps are wireless controlled, so I can turn them on while walking down the pontoon...

And finally, it was dark by the time I'd finally got the Eberspacher to play ball:

Looking really good. Now, when do you want to charter her out? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif We are getting requests for next year already

 

[Wiggo]

Well, actually, I am thinking of getting her coded, and I have the commercial wotsit on my YM...

 

[Solitaire]

Well, we will promote her if you want. Already getting requests for 2008. And boats of your size are in demand. PM me

Very nice i have been thinking about changing my saloon from cloth to leather also a sealine F37may i ask who carried out the work and aprox cost
A

Hi Wiggo she looks really good. We use an F37 for training and charter. The owner has her up for sal at present, so whoever buys her will get some yearly income from the school. If you code yours for charter with Dave & John I guess she could also be a reserve school board in case theirs has a breakdown............just a thought.

Oh if you do charter her, get an "overcarpet" to keep yours pukka. Good luck Clive

Neil Lewington from Lewington Leather (http://www.lewingtonleather.co.uk). Cost was a little under £3500 including new wood inserts for the side panels (one of the originals had warped).

Very Nice Graham, you must be pleased as ol' Punch!

More of an investment than an expense. Bet it smells pretty good too. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Looks very nice. Do you have Before photos to show the comparison with the finished job.

 

[BrendanS]

There were, but they were posted like the after pics, about 3 years ago

 

[Wiggo]

Actually, the before shots wouldn't tell you very much as she was done in a cream fabric. It wouldn't have shown on th photos, but it had reached the end of its life after many sessions with the upholstery cleaner, and was even beginning to go threadbare in the high wear areas. The 'during' photos were interesting. SWMBO had to leave when she saw us take a wood saw to the seat base to remove the cushion...

 

[Kilter]

Very swish!

Saw you on C79 at Cobbs, but boat appeared deserted when I walked by.
