Guys,
Thank you for all of your kind comments, I love what I am doing here, it maintains a thread of originality with a twist of the more modern.
Mario, you have expressed what a lot of others are probably thinking, it`s a bit OTT. However at present I would say that it is just very full on, the OTT part is comming next, still lots more to go.
Bud, I will PM you

Knowing I wanted to use the original pedestal seats and wanted increased stiffness we overlayed the original cockpit floor by bonding and screwing another layer of marine ply down first in order to present a good bonding surface for the Teak both of which are 3/8" thick. The fore deck insert is also 3/8" with a Bull nose edge down to the GRP.

Hi Jeff,
I`m still so grateful that you were able to visit us this summer and provide all those little tips about how to restore a Magnum 27 and get up the noses of all the other Magnum owners at the same time.
Your input was invaluable not to mention finding and shipping all those difficult to find parts that all that other Magnum owners would kill for whilst you export them in the dead of night. However trust me I wont say a word to anyone else, OK.
Kind regard

Firstly Jeff is an honorary Englishman by special decree.
Secondly writing in that vane I think that the last time he was in England must have been 1812, we've all moved on since them, however poor old Jeff is still stuck in the past but he is so quaint, don`t you know !

Jeff said you won't believe how nice the paint & teak looked when he saw it last summer.
