Polished windshield glass & frames. Anodizing on frames is in amazing condition.!

Hard to tell from photo. Does the fuel cell cavity have a removable deck section on the V21

Where did you get the 90* deck drains?
I have the female 90 Forespar Marelon

Shifted my attention to the original factory 27 year old wiring today. Found several highly corroded wires that turned to dust when touched. Bilge pump wiring was one. Pulled them all out and installed new correct color (brown) lead from multi connector stbd side aft. Removed excess/older wiring. Neatened everything up with neoprene lined SS clamps and wire ties.

I was kind of embarrassed by her outwardly appearance, so I took some time to address that.

Brings back memories of when I decided to clean out wiring from a few generations of electronics in my V-20. Two Saturdays and two 5 gallon buckets nearly full of old wire. What a difference all cleaned out, terminal blocks not corroded any more and new wires and connections done with waterproof heat shrink ends. Very satisfying.

It's a good feeling when you're out on the water knowing that its done. And the plus side is if you have a problem, it will be a whole lot easier to find and correct.

You're going to give Lumber slinger a run for his money as prettiest boat. God I wish I had the space like you do for my boat. Mines all wrapped up for the winter, but that and the cold makes working on it a springtime/summer kind of thing. Less time to actually enjoy it.
