Hey Charlie, do you have any Banana Cabin doors and/or a windshield laying around for a 24 ?? I have done up everything all the way, and I don't want to try to make some home-made crap that cheapens the look of the boat.

Hey Patrick,
I took a long break from working on the boat....cash flow issues....but I think I am back in business now. We should be dropping in the engine this week. I finished the dash with the trim switches on saturday. I have to wire up the dash, wire up the trim pumps, do all the upholstery, build cabin doors (have had no luck with these) and build a wind fairing, or make something out of lexan. The upholstery shop will take 4 weeks probably, so I am probably about 2 months out. Hows your boat runnin ??

Your boat looks fantastic, I was wondering if anyone knew someone in the RI/MA area that is competent in restoring a Banana. I have a 1990 that is in good condition but does need work. any suggestions? Thanks.
