Its been documented on here. Can't remember who, but they did this and took pics the whole way. Not too bad of a job and when you are done it will be stronger than new.

You should be able to find it...somehow??

YEAH, I REMEMBER SOMETHING POSTED FOR HATCHES BUT HAVEN'T FOUND IT YET, DO YOU KNOW HOW TO USE SEARCH ENGINE? ANY OF THE "GODS" LISTENING?

OH, I FORGOT, I'VE SEEN SOME PEOPLE DOIGN IT WITH
SAMLL PIECES OF PLAYWOOD IN LIKE LAYERS, GLUED TOGETHER WITH THE FIBERGLASS, OTHERS USE A SOLID PIECE. WHICH WAY BE BETTER?

Carlos, I'll be sure to post some pics as soon as I get the trim installed. Probably won't be for a while since the boat is 2 hours away.
