I'm watching and taking notes. You've got me thinking about my next boat project and I haven't even started on Julie's kitchen.

Dave I think what you saw on the other bracket was a core cell ledge that I glass in on the top of the tub around the perimeter. I have not got that far on this one yet. I put lots of cabosil on the ledge and then bond the two parts together. Coring the front of the bracket tub would sure make it bullet proof but I've never done that. Did you get my message yesterday?





Anyone else? it's fairly obvious if you look at both brackets something I forgot to do....that would have been easier to do before I glassed....but is easily fixed with a power tool
