Great Advise... Look into Awlgrip 3131 varnish. You can do 4 to 5 coats in a day. build it up, then sand with 220 to just take the edges down, and Epafaine the last for a high gloss....

Good Laughter In the morning.....

So I found that you do not need to remove the roof or the windows to remove the block. It fits up the main hatch...New Blueprinted one is going back in next week

Check your Local canvas shops, and ask at the loacl marina. You can get one made for about the same price as a pre made one. any color and use sunbrella for best results...

I had the stantions Powder coated in 96 and they still look new today, I had the anchor windlass and Line guides plated. BEWARE of oiling your deck.
