Thanks guys!
Pete, Sean does know the Boatsmith people, he has also worked for Liberty Yachts during summer break, Viking set up the Charter school to create workers but he didn't want to go to work full time yet. Here's a few pics, no interior shots, but he totally gutted it and changed the floor plan to just 2 berths, and if you look at the davits he also did the same design on the stove gimbals.

Pretty little boat.
Anyone else flinch when they see the wine bottle slam on the bow of a pretty restoration job like this. It KILLS me. I see Ted Knight in Caddyshack everytime.

Did someone say "Caddyshack"?

If you use a hand file and cut a groove in the glass 1/3 the way around the middle of the bottle, it breaks with only the slightest impact. You might want to try on a bottle or two first though.
