minor galley and dinetter remodel

Post by georgepet »

Hi all....

Forgive the poor lighting on the pictures, I'll take new one's when I'm finally on the water next week - boat is still in the shed, so light quality wasn't great when I took these photo's. As you recall I had redone the dinette table, refinishing the table surface in teak and adding an inlay and most importantly four drawers.

For the galley, I added a copper based tile backsplash and refinished the surface again in teak topped by epoxy and then a spar varnish. Finally, I just repainted the stock cupboard latches to give them a bit of a more modern look. I won't post a before picture, you all know what that is - the standard Trojan formica finish in both the dinette and galley counter. I would note that just getting the old sink polished certainly paid dividends, it looks pretty new. I also added a new faucet. Pics follow

nice work! I like the inlay, nice touch. I almost went with a similar backsplash on mine but I saw it after I wall papered . Yours turned out great!
