I really like your project, I think a scepter might be my next boat.

If I do one, I will paint the window frames as you did and source some new glass.

I don't see too many on here painting bilges or if they are, they are painting them the same color as the fiberglass. Is there any downside to painting it? I am doing so because I want a clean look and I want any debris to be easily visible.
lots of nasty things end up in the bilge, things that are mean to most paints most topside paints will not hold up in there. I prefer to use pigmented epoxy, its fuel resistant (you can make gas tanks with it) and it cleans up very easy. It also bonds VERY well.
