Teak, Corian, and Naugahyde updates to my 10 meter interior

Post by my10meter »

I am posting these pictures again as many have asked about my interior. The teak is very thin real veneer that has been laminated over the walls and the counter and table have received a corian treatment with undermount sink. Drawer faces have also been updated. I have contemplated putting a teak and holly floor in, but since I use my boat for charters- it would not hold up to the hard traffic and would be slippery when wet.Image

The white on the hullsides is padded naugahyde and note the bracket where my tv/computer monitor for my pc based electronics goes(this is the backup monitor to the helm monitor)

Oh so very nice !

So here are a few questions...

1. I am assuming you removed the factory fabric from the walls and then glued in the veneer? Was the removal difficult? Lots of acetone?

2. The veneer comes in sheets? How thin is it? Easy/difficult to work with? How does it hold up? How long ago did you do the refit?

3. Is it possible to simply glue it to the front of a cabinet drawer and then run a router around the edges for a nice factory like edge?

4. does the lack of "soft" fabric on the walls make the cabin any noisier?

5. I have been considering simply removing the tabletop, wetbar top and galley countertop then taking them to a cabinet shop for a "redo" in corian or a thin granite, then installing them myself. How difficult was it to remove the galley top? My backsplash is red formica and the bottle storage in the corner is also formica How would you handle these?

6. Did you have to raise the galley countertop to get that nice sink in above the fridge?

7. What would you think about my setting the 2 burner stove into a recess below the countertop and building a removable lid to facilitate more counterspace as we rarely use the stovetop?

8. How much of the actual work did you do yourself or farm out and what woiuld you expect for a reasonable budget for the teak, and corian?

THANKS a lot for the inspiring photos!

WHAT A REALLY NICE UPGRADE FROM THAT 1980's LOOK TO AN OUTSTANDING, WARM, AND INVITING AMBIENCE !

I never considered using wood and know nothing about veneers, however your results are OUTSTANING. I think doing mine as yours is, including the circular Doris Day stairway with that teak veneer would be a phenomenal upgrade.

Thank you for your time and suggestions.

An IRON ?

I wonder how we would deal with the curved bulkheads on the Internationals?

Very nice I love the teak walls I hope you answer all RWS questions because I would love to here the answers. I redid all my walls and head liner with vinyl material and it sucked. I never thought of veneer.

I just the small section of wall in the head where the porthole is in teak. I'm either going to relaminate the counter too or get corian made. I have to do something because I have no counter in the head now :)

I put the teak veneer right over the existing plywood after peeling off the original vinyl covering, it came right off. I also replaced the inner half of the porthole since I needed to remove it anyway. I'll do a full video walk though once I'm unwrapped and cleaned up. I actually did that last year, about 25 mins of video but it never saved on the SD card. I've done a bunch of stuff since then so I'll have more to show.
