Paneling in your cabin

Michael; I wouldn't use cedar. Ask any moth why.

paneling

Hey Michael, I would use 1/4 mahogony plywood. I would think it would only take two sheets or so.You could pre fit the parts in the boat and then take them out to put the finish on, then install them. Suwanee lumber co. in Suwanee carries it and I think it's around 50 bucks per sheet. I just bought a 78 cat 22 and thats what I'm going to do.

Mahagany, hmmm

Thanks Vernon, I will check it out.I was beginning to wonder if the cedar scent was going to be overwhelming anyway.By the way, I stll haven't figured out how I am going to handle some of the curved corners. I also don't know how much I am going to panel. Also, do you think that 1/4 inch paneling will suck up too much of the VERY limited space? Would love to discuss with you.If you like mike.halliday@nextel.com, OR continue to post here, since someone else may be thinking the same thoughts.BTW, I live in Lawrenceville
