Carver 4207

More Salon/galley area......going to swap out the stools for a more darker wood stool.

More shots from down below.........

Top side....

The former owner went with a grey non-skid on the aft deck and bridge (I hate it!) not sure if I am going to go with carpet or nu-teak decking and cover all this up--he did a really ****** job--oh well BUST OUT ANOTHER THOUSAND! I will add some aft deck furniture, really want a boarding stairs down to the swim platform like Mystic (that is on my to-do-list)

Carver 4207.....

Couple more shots----spent hours pressure washing the boat, next is compound and wax (when the temp is cooler than the Texas 100 heat!) so far very impressed with the boat--plenty of room more like a 50+ foot boat.....and actually enjoying the work in progress! Comments welcome from my fellow 4207 brothers!

The TV is mounted ok....I didn't like it at first however I am starting to warm up to the idea--one reason I want to go with a futon is that I can move it easily to watch a good movie and have it face the TV -aka- movie theater style. then place it back where the couch would be.

I removed the headboard in the main stateroom and painted the area white to bring out more color (it was too dark) still looking into LED lighting options.

Here are some Galley shots (not the best pics) and another of the rear stateroom vanity area....

counter tops.....

...used a laminate that is self stick on type to cover up the funky pink mauve color. They look good eh?

I should have some more pics up tomorrow, my Brazilian Saddle stools arrived and my Futon so I spend most of the day installing and removing the old stuff and in with the new!

mo' pics!

Installed Futon, fits perfect pulled out into a bed, removed old furniture--junked it. Installed two Brazilian saddle stools, painted side wall's white and stained the ceiling cedar to match the rest of the boat's salon.

update

Boat is night and day from when I started 2 months ago.....

Fixed windlass, and other numerous other odd and ends. Added deck furniture to aft area.

Name of boat was decided as "GRINGO PILOTO"

I have black and gold on there, I have a guy who can make me some more i fI want them but I am planning a significant buff/wax again so I want to wait it out. I am adding the name "GINGO PILOTO" to the stern next week.
