Hello folks,
I'm coming up to the time of moving from framing, sheathing and roofing my GL "Hercules" trawler and looking at interior finishing. Do any of you know of any any books that would help with boat cabinet construction etc?
Thanks,
Graham

8) the glen-l book building with plywood has a section on it in the book. but other than locking draws and cabinets it is mostly standard cabinet construction. the main difference is the wood you would use or finish. you could use standard cabinet woods but you have to think about moisture like all things on building a boat. Stay away from the cheep partial board cabinet construction. 8)
