Cuddy Deck Repair (Finally)
Guys been lost for a while busy with other items. Got the cuddy fixed and the boat is fishing again.
Didn't want to remove the cap so took a different rout and I'm very satisfied with the outcome. Took the time to refinish the teak and also made new rails for the cuddy slide door as mine were shot. Painted over with Durabak textured, sanded and followed with Durabak smooth. Now I don't feel like I'm gonna go through when I walk up there. Last edited by joe7670; 04-20-2011 at 08:36 AM.

Material was 1/2 inch marine grade ply and resin. The wet look is the resin pre putting the cap back on. A little wet to help the cap adhear.
Once the cap went on I put a bunch of sand bags and 5 gallon pails on it to keep it from having bubbles. Sorry, meant Durabak and my process was. Layed some of the textured durabak that I had left over from the floor. Then sanded it down a little to take the rough peaks out. Finally painted with the smooth version of Durabak.

Joe,
Thanks for sharing your project. Looks pretty darn good! How easy did the top skin come off the coring below? My boat needs to have the coring replaced on the bow also.

Great job Joe. Nice to see people using their brains to figure out a better way of doing things.

Thanks Joe!
I would like to make time to do my bow next year. I just replaced the cockpit hatch coring on the Bertram with Coosa board. Nice stuff but expensive. Might look into what it would cost to do the Wellcraft with Coosa. Your method seems more logical then removing the whole cap off the hull.
