Grey,
Nice looking boat! The modifications you did look great. Where did you put the holding tank for the head and how big is it. Do you have a pump out or just a macerator?

The only thing I really need to do to the Wellcraft is replace the fuel sending unit. I got the gauge to work last winter but it stopped working mid summer. I can't figure out how to get the sending unit out without cutting the cockpit floor so I guess I'm going to replace the pie plate with a 13"x17" hatch. Wish it had a removable lid like the V 20.

I've already done a bunch of stuff to the RIB. However I need to cover one of stringers with fiberglass and epoxy. The port side is fine but the starboard side for some reason is missing the fiberglass. The wood is fine but I did treat it with a slow cure deep penetrating epoxy just in case.

I need to replace 7 zippers on the Bertram's flybridge enclosure. I also should replace the covering of the coaming pads on the flybridge. I stopped by the marina last week while the weather was warm and removed all the teak I could from the Bertram to give everything a few coats of Epifanes. Looks like we are headed back into winter this week so a basement project will keep me from going cabin crazy. Love the look of teak on the V 20 and the Bertram but it's a pain in the arse. On the other hand what the heck else is there to do in the middle of winter for some that has a boat addiction.
