All, Can anyone confirm what the right procedure and right finish is to make repairs to the interior finish of a 2000 B321 with dark cherry finish. My research leads me to Mohawk Cherry Ultra Classic Toner with maybe a lacquer to seal but I can't confirm for sure plus I am not sure if a lacquer needs to be used. I'm looking for the right recipe to reproduce the finish. Anyone has it handy?

The recipe !!

Bebebleu, when we owned a Beneteau 361 (2001) I went to Todd Cranford at Beneteau USA for the same type of information you are looking for. We talked on the phone and he emailed me a WORD document entitled "Beneteau Wood Repair Techniques". It is very thorough with the specifics of the wood, repair, how to match the finish with wood or finish materials easily obtained locally. I have used this information several times and the results have been very good and I am still using it on my Beneteau 473 (2006). The document is about 7 pages long in text and tables. I would suggest you contact Todd Cranford at Beneteau USA Customer Service in South Carolina. His direct number is 843-629-5320 or you can email him at todd.cranford@beneteauusa.com and he is very helpful and responsive. If you have any problems let me know and I can email it to you. Rich

Mayonaise or crayons

I either use mayonaise or crayons to cover scratches. Either will cover the damaged areas and most people will never see the difference. I have use mayonaise on fine furniture for years. Jim

I put the file in the resource section of this forum. Couldn't attach a PDF here. Cat

Found the source of info

In my quest for the right information, I discovered the tips library on the Beneteau web site (see link). It's full of info, including lots of on-line owner's manuals and tips plus this great document on wood repair techniques.
