Default Re: 1978 20 Master Angler Restoration


Thanks for the compliments but Strick is a master craftsman....I do work no where near his calibre.

Now as for the Fuel Coffin Hatch.......THOSE WERE THE SAME EXACT MEASUREMENTS I HAD....26 3/4 wide by 8.1 long. You can either try and fix your existing hatch cover or make a new one. Mine was severly cracked and actually consisted of two seperate hatches....so I made one big hatch out of CORECELL. The CORECELL is 1/2 with 1 layer of 1.5 oz matt on top, with one layer of 1808 just under that, with 2 full laywer of 1808 on bottom and two strips of 1808 along the edges (to help raise it a little) All in all it took maybe 5 hours to make and fair.
