Hunter 30 1979 renovation

[Peck]

I'm changing from teak to cherry all veneer, some trim with cherry board and new vinyl headliner

Just checking mesure for boards and look good for now. Old steps board is in bad condition so I made new Corner edge cut out from board and then sand to have nice round shape ( cherry wood) For v bert lockers New faucet for galley I move stairs to the left side more so I will have more room around the navigation table

I just finish my steering wheel vinyl with foam

Hats off to your fine work and thank u for your encouragement for me to replace my galley countertop.

Were you concerned about removing replacing the chain plates on the main bulkhead?

Hi Peck,

Your project is very interesting. Here you can find what I am doing with my 1980 Hunter 30. Maybe you could find some ideas, even if it's in french!

I remove easy chainplates sanded with ultra fine paper and look shine without any damage .

Beautifull paint job. I was thinking to change in dark blue with beige top and golden thin line from side. What paint did you use?

Hi Peck,

I used Interlux products:

Brightside on the deck with Prekote primer.

Interdeck (with sand) with Primekote (with epoxy) primmer.

Perfection for the hull with Primekote primer. Gun application. A fourth layer will be added with fair weather in june.

Perfection will be used for the floating line. I will do it in june too. Waiting about nice warm and dry weather!

Very easy to use in poor conditions. I am surprised of the result. I am used with car paints. Should be done not in direct sunlight and with no wind, or the less of wind.

Sorry for my bad english!

I really don't know. The one I have came with the boat when I bought it 2 years ago. It is an aluminium "T" bar bent and fixed with screws in a 3/4 inches plywood that I changed with renforced bar under it.

Here you can find more pictures of my project. They are not in a logical order, but I don't know how to change it. Should be a public album:

Sebastion -
Beautiful work. Especially like the wood paneling to replace the cloth liner.

Looks very nice. I can't wait to get to the point where I can post some pics of my renovation. It will be awhile due to the crappy winter and wanting to get the boat water tight before I install the new interior. I am doing my walls with smooth carbonized bamboo strips. I lot cheaper and stays within my budget.

Peck that looks great! Is all I did was sand my woodwork down and oil it. My projects on mine was to do the plumbing, new cushions, headliner, and the counter top too. I think it come out good.

Almost forgot a AC unit too.

Thanks, it gives a nive look in the cabin. My parents owned a Hughes 38 for several years and ther was plenty of teak in. This was a miss in the Hunter, so I wanted to get a nice amount of wood because I like it very much.

I'd love to see pictures of your bamboo strips when it would be possible!

Put this up on the Hunter owner modifications please so the rest of us can dream what we should have done to our 30's.

Peck, what are you going to do with the salon table? Are you making a new one or using the old one? I'm missing half of mine. The PO said, "Don't know where it went".

I'm trying to keep original look in new and modern style.Have idea to remove teak from edge and put on top white vinyl revarnish teak and connect everything like before. That is one idea.Maybe to glue new formica in cherry but that will be expecting and not to much modern what I want in this situation.I'm trying to have that cozy transitional from old to modern style.
