Last winter I completely re-fit my 1979 F-44 and wanted to share pictures of the boat with the people on this forum. I want to thank everybody in this forum for throughout the nine months of work I received a lot great advice from the members of this group.
Prior to the renovation, the boat had old stained pea green carpets, faded and stained paint and woodwork, a nonworking Lectra San system, no working electronics, one bad AC system, rotten motor mounts on the port motor, one bad riser, and a number of other mechanical issues.
Through the renovation we put in new flooring, countertops, back splashes, sinks, faucets, lighting, carpet, upholstery and drapes, furniture and aft state room bed, a new vacu flush system, water tanks, oil exchange system, one new 16,000 BTU cruise air system, refinished the majority of the teak, re-stitched the canvas, repainted the boot stripe and stripe around the bridge and probably 50 other things I'm not mentioning here!
Attached please find a couple of pictures of the almost finished product. There are a ton of pictures in photobucket, either click on each link in this post or go to the Library then Renovation Complete folder to see the finished work. Of course this winter I have a whole other list of things to do.....
