Default Re: Early 70s Seafari Questions

Very nice... Did the galley seat come from the factory with the bucket style seat mounted on top like that, or was that a design change that you made? Just curious as I've never actually seen what the galley seat looks like/is supposed to look like. When opened up, what supports the seat side? Does the top edge of the seat just rest on the deck, thus holding up that side of the fold out lid? Does that whole galley box rest on the deck, or is it somehow mounted? Also, where does the water actually come from/get drained to? My Seafari has the cut-out in the port gunwale with a removable hatch. On curiousity I've opened it before, and there is a short length of hose. I guess it might run to an outside pick-up/drain? Have you decided what to recoat the bulkhead with? That project will be coming soon for me too, as the contact paper has faded pretty bad, and the clear surface film is actually starting to peel off a bit. I really like your woodwork. What did you use on the cabin door and rod holders? Mine needs some definite cleaning, sealing to be done. The cabin door needs to be rebuilt a little as it has a couple splits, and the fiberglass has stress cracked in the corners. I remember reading other posts about the same problem on other boats. Keep up the good work!!
