Re: Can someone help with an interior fini****ng guestion please?

Bob,

This is pretty big undertaking.  I have finished interiors of provided 
hulls and done some pretty serious refitting, but you better first 
figure out what has to stay, what you want to leave and (of course) 
where you want to end up.

Most boats built in that time were built based on classic expectations. 
  Few people use boats that way anymore.  This is why the "travel 
trailer" interior design took over in the early 80's.

You have to figure the rest out.
