    Are the seats a recent purchase, if so where did you get them from?
    Aha, a closet addict

    We've had the seats for over two years, they're out of a Seafarer. We got them through a Seafarer dealer. Someone had purchased a new Seafarer and changed the seats... so these ones were sitting on the shop floor begging Ross to buy them

    Hi jon, you must have missed a report or two..... the trailer had a quick reno in the middle of all this. Although there is talk now of modifying the trailer to protect Play-Pen from stone chips

    Well done guys. A fantastic read and an excellant job on the boat.
    I would love to go down to the pin this weekend for a closer look but guess what............ We found white ants in our bathroom so all boating is cancelled until the bathroom is rebuilt!
    I saved a jar full of the little buggers and am going to use them for burley when I can go fishing again.

    Yes there were definitely times like that, especially towards the end.... so close, yet still so far to go.

    Great reno, whats your next project
    Ummm... finish the truck that has been getting around two-toned for just over 160 days!

    Well done guys its been a long haul but the end result is well worth it. May you enjoy many happy days & nights aboard Play-Pen. Im sure there will be many more opportunities to sit back and reflect on what has been achieved. Its easy to go out and buy something new but you guys have done it all yourselves and that is something o be VERY proud of.
    Congratulations again and thanks for sharing the journey with all of us.

    Cheers and beers

    Before - Jan 2006



    After - June 2006



    I can't find an overall pic of the interior, but this shows the cabin layout before...



    and after.



    We still need to get some upholstery work done in the cabin.... but it can wait until the bank balance is looking healthier
