I reinforced and redecked the bow. Covered the bow with epoxy impregnated marine plywood, then a funky cloth pattern and a final urethane UV protective coat. I added a large bow compartment hatch and stereo. I redirected furling lines and spinnaker drain, added a stern traveler, fixed the magic box, replaced the rotted wooden bump strip with bright yellow fire hose as well as many other items. I have literally hundreds of shots of all of the mods if anyone is interested.
More photos are available via email if someone wants detail on any given part of the rebuild.
