We were cleaning up our "cooler" on our 1988 Catalina 30 and noted that the removeable metal/vinyl coated shelf was showing some really bad rust leeching thru the vinyl and was either in need of repair or replacement. I was wondering what would be a sutiable replacement, that would be easy to construct and would last. Has anyone had the same problem with beat, rusting vinyl coated shelfing in their cooler and replaced it with something else? I considered using a vinyl type spray that would recoat the metal, but the rust may eventually leech thru again. I also considered a piece of plexiglass, but I question the overall strength. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks Bob

I just replace the vinyl coated shelving with

new vinyl coated shelving. I warm the vinyl with heat gun before putting the tips on so they stick good.
