Extreme makeover 72 seafari 25 aloha edition

Nice work..I remember those little doors...sorry I could not be more help on the gaskets...I think they are the same for every model seacraft...they have them in stock and will cut by how much you order...measure away and order a little extra for screw ups..

Mele Kalikimaka!

So been mostly hurry up and wait on parts here. So close to starting engine but missing just 1 or 2 pieces from engine electrical, fuel, cooling system to finish it. So back to woodworking as I wait. It’s been pouring rain here for days.

Here’s some teak treads I made to go on footrests at helm.
I also made teak moldings for bulkheads and cabin area trim. Lo and behold you can buy them. Seateak. But they aren’t cheap and shipping would be brutal to Hawaii.

Ty bro. I hope they hold up well. We’ll see. It’s flagship by petit varnish (6 light coats?) over top of starbrite teak oil (2-3 coats). I used homax treadtex you can get at most big box stores. It’s pretty clear when coated.
