2019 beneteau 41.1 drawer box and finish

[ojaiBeneteau411]

I am looking to add a few drawers to my boat and was wondering if anyone knew who the drawer box manufacturer is? I’d like to keep all the cabinetry consistent.

does anyone know how to source the laminate used on the floor and sheet goods (bulkheads)?

thanks

The manufacturer and whether you can get the laminate from Beneteau seems like something Ward Richardson, the Beneteau USA Spare Parts manager, might know, if he's willing to share. Ward's email is either w.richardson@beneteau.com or ward.richardson@beneteauusa.com (I've seen them both used).

Beneteau makes a pretty big deal about every piece coming from their wood workshop, with generational woodworkers, yada yada yada.

As others have mentioned, all wood items are cut in Beneteau’s wood shop in France, even for boats that were manufactured in USA. If ward richardson can special order for you, that would be the best option, but expensive. Also, check periodically on EBay, I have found a few pieces there. You only need enough for the drawer front; the box can be constructed of anything, but preferably Baltic birch plywood.
