Default Cabin Door

What are the cabin doors made of on the new boats? Are they painted aluminum? Mine is made of some type of plastic (maybe an aftermarket fix?) , so I covered it in vinyl to make it look pretty. Looks good but can be hard to open and close sometimes. I want to get a new door.

They are not made of aluminum. AnimalHouse will know the exact material and should respond. If not I'll find out tomorrow for you Rich.

Rich, they are made of a composite material (g10). Or carbon fiber. Call me tomorrow I'll get a price. What color?

Rich,

Did you ever replace your door?

Has anyone had any luck replacing the door in a 37? If so, can you please tell me where you got it? I took my door out yesterday, and it appears to be just some kind of plastic. I would think there is a good alternative available these days. Thanks for any and all suggestions.

Thomas,

Never replaced the door, the door itself was actually fine, made out of some type of composite/plastic. I did recover the door in white vinyl, looks great. Sometimes the door can rub on the underside of the deck, I used a thin insulation on the underside of the deck to avoid that problem.

Why did you take the door out? Are you having a problem with it?
