Cockpit lower mahogany side boards

Post by CRUSADER68 » Sat May 28, 2016 3:42 pm

I have a 1963 CC Connie crusier and am in process of removing old varnish and rebuildling with new varnish.
The lower sections are a laminate. I have removed the bottom molding thinking that would allow me to remove them and use them them as a pattern for new ones. Bummer they don't come loose. Were they glued to frames on the backside. I need them for a new pattern. Anyone every had this issue or tried to remove the panels ...I could sure use some advice. See photos :(

I have similar covering boards on my '67 Sea Skiff Corinthian. My covers fit into a slot behind the coming boards and are screwed to a cleat at the bottom. Mine are 1/4 inch mahogany veneer marine ply, stained and varnished. I can't imagine CC gluing them to to a cleat. Might be bedding compound.
