Reel and Willy,
Thanks for the input on the unsealed coring. I will pull the plates and try to remove the coring around the holes. Then I fill with West system epoxy with filler and redrill to correct size. I'll be sure 4200 the screws. It will have to warm up a bit to do any of those outside jobs. It's around 25 degrees outside right now. Brrrrrrrrrrr!!

When I removed the frame for the cuddy door I notice that the plywood in the bulkhead was a bit damp. I tried to force a screwdriver into the plywood but it wasn't soft. I do have two screws that hold the frame of the door that need to be rebedded (sp?).

Anyone have any luck with removing mold and mildew from the monkey fur in the overhead in the V berth? Looks like it's going to be a fun job.


Looking into replacing the steering with a NFB assembly from Teleflex. Anyone have any idea what the correct cable length for an 87 with a 200 Yamaha? Have a good friend that had a V 20 a few years back that replaced his steering cable and he said he had to lift the motor (150 Black Max Merc) out of the way to get the radius of the cable worked around and installed. Anyone with any experience doing this? Just wondering if I can do the cable install in the backyard with the boat undercover or wait an move it to the driveway in the spring so I can get the cherry picker to lift the motor up.
