DSC01174 I don't know about your boat, but my boat has one continuous rubber that starts at the stern and butts up with the other end at the stern. In the pic you can see the two ends of the rubber held in place with wood screws and cup washers. It's foolish to remove this rubber completely out of the track all the way around and by the same token you don't want to remove all the moldings at once unless you need to. My suggestion to you is to remove the rubber on one side of the boat at a time. Find the break in the moldings somewhere near the bow where they butt up against each other and just remove the rubber and moldings to that point. There may be more unused screw holes in the moldings than there were screws installed at the factory, so I would advise you to mark the screw holes that were used. That way, all the screws go back where they were before you removed them.

DSC01218 I'm also planning on cutting the mattresses in the V birth section. There will be no need for Velcro because these mattresses fit in this section like a puzzle and will stay put once they are in place. This new idea of cutting my mattress is still in the thought stages and nothing is etched in stone as of yet. It all hinges on whether I can get the material soon.

DSC01385 If I cut these mattresses in half it will be easier for my wife to sew the new material. I'll have easier access to my two compartments when I need to get to my food storage containers. No more will I need to hold a long mattress up and out of the way with my head in order to get at the containers. Velcro can be used where the mattresses butt up against one another to keep them together.

DSC01384 This pic shows my port quarter birth compartment. I keep all my can goods, and other food items in these 2.5 gal. plastic containers. I have three compartments on each side of the boat and in order to get at the two on each side that I use the most, I need to raise the mattress on that side and hold it with my head while I take the containers out of the compartment, which gets is to be a pain in the butt. I want to recover these mattresses with new material as soon as I can find some material that I like, cheap. My latest brain storm is to cut these mattress foams in half which will make it a lot easer to move out of the way to get at each of the two compartments on both sides of the boat. I can keep them joined with Velcro, as I have omitted the mattress under the cockpit on my boat. This is an idea that I've been kicking around for a while and I think it's doable.
