ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.พ. 2023
- In this video we show you how we strip our boat's cabin of all its carpet then clean the cabin walls in order to prepare for paint. We discuss the special tools we use to make the job easier. We use 3 coats of rustoleum topside paint to completely cover the boat cabin.
In addition, we show you how we restore out boat cabin door. We show you how we sanded the doors, then used a special cleaner to prep the doors for teak oil.
Lastly, we install the doors and show you the finished product,

What a happy boat! Lookin great!
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching! 🤙
Wow! What a transformation!!
Thank you Marianne! ♥️
Looking good guys. That’s great that you were able to restore the original teak doors. Keep going!
Thank you! We got lucky! If not we’d have to buy more starboard and the price of that stuff is getting ridiculous!🍻
When i did my cabin and sanded i ran a 6 inch vent duct pipe thru window and had a inline grow room extractor fav pulling all the dust out of the air Fast!!!! I still had mask but it was 100% the way to do that.
You’re so right! If we ever have to do this again (I hope not) I’ll definitely do that! 🤙
@perfectfitboating just started following your build i habe a grady 206G im working on now. Thinking ofaking a few videos. ! Striper season in 45 days for me im tryin to get shit done asap.
@redartisanwolf6716 oh bad ass! Absolutely make videos and post them! People love all that and they can learn from it! Not sure we’re youre located, I’m guessing up north east coast, we’re blessed with year round boating down here. Check out the latest video we did about FGCI fiberglass store, it can help with your project too. Lots of info! 🤙
Looking good! Yall are getting close!
It definitely feels that way! Then other times we look at all the small things we gotta do and think it’s gonna take a lifetime! 😒 I’m guessing another month before we splash her! 🙌
Wow! You two are doing a great job. I feel I’m too old to undertake such a project. I definitely want to see the final product. Good luck!
You’re never too old! Just gotta have the time to dedicate to a project. And lots of it!
We’re just about finishing her up to do some test runs. We’ll be putting out some more videos soon! Thanks for the positive comments! 🍻
Awesome Bulk head👍
Thanks so much! We try! 🍻
Great idea to work around sanding in between the louvers. I'll do it for mine here soon. Question for you though. I see people ripping out the carpet and painting all the time. It looks great, but I always wondered if the cabin walls would sweat when you wake up in the morning just like it would when you wake up after sleeping outside in a tent. Do you find yourself waking up with sweaty cabin walls in the morning?
Hey Andrew! We haven’t experienced that, but we actually put ac in the cabin. What we are going to do is put up a mold resistant headliner because as it sits it traps a lot of dirt and mold making it look ugly and smelly. The company is called sailright and they sell the fabric by the. Yard! 🤙
I am in the same process. Removed my carpet out of my Sea Fox. I am using the same tool but I have a 5" steel brush on a angle grinder. I will switch to 3 inch and the drill when I get to the ceiling.
Man I gotta tell you. This was one of the WORST parts of building this boat. It was absolutely awful! Years of crap built up and all the dust from the work we had done from ripping the stringers out. Use PPE and Godspeed lol hope it comes out awesome! 🤙🍻
@@perfectfitboatingMy Sea Fox I think I grind about 15 minutes and was tired as hell. Still ongoing, I do a few sections at a time. I rebuilt a 79 weekender Grady 19ft. I did transom, stringers up until the helm. I had a thread in iboats forum doing the build. The rest was ok under the cabin. Added sister joints to attach the stringers to the original stringer. Laid the deck and added the floatation foam. I did not paint, sold the boat and bought the 24ft Sea Fox as it had everything I needed. I was trying to add live well and bigger gas tank in the grady and realized it would not fit. Went from 19 gallon tank in the grady to a 120 gallon in the fox. Gosh
Man that sounds like a huge project! At least you have everything you need now in the bigger sea fox. I feel 24ft is the perfect sized boat for a single person or couple to handle.
We’ll be doing the transom within the next two weeks before we hang a 4 stroke on this one! 🤙
@@perfectfitboating I am just upgrading some items in the Sea Fox. Wiring, battery placements from stern to the cabin. I have foam stringers and composite transom in the Sea Fox should not have to worry about rot. I like 2 strokes less work when putting the boat up for a few months but would like to get a 4.
Check out our wiring videos if you need some help! 4stroke is in our near future! We can’t wait!
Looking good 👍 quite a project there. I Know how that feels 😂
Just subd to your page! You do know how it feels lol nothings easy! 🤣🍻
Yes! I am about right there with my boat now. Thank You. #mattdv
Awesome Matt! We’d love to see how it comes out! Good luck!🙌🍻
Hey. I’m watching a few of your videos. It’s probably a bit late. But they have Tia stuff. It’s a penetrating Apoxsee. You drill small holes about 2” apart. Then you inject it into the rot. I bought a quart for a soft section on my transom. I haven’t used it yet but everything I hear says it’s even stronger then the original. Expensive though. But a big time saver. And never rot again. My project is definitely on a lower scale.
Hey thanks for that tip! I recently found some more rot on the bow of the boat where the anchor holder is and I’ll more than likely use that so thank you for that! Just subbed to your channel that’s a nice Grady you got. Alieys parents just found one like that for a steal! I think it’s a 19 dual console with a 115! Sweet little boat!
@@perfectfitboating thanks. Yes it’s a nice boat. Big deck area. Perfect for my area. In Rhode Island. And off the coast of Newport. I ordered that penetrating Apoxsee on amazon. Was hear in two days. A few TH-cam videos on it. Pretty interesting. Good luck with boat. I’ll be looking for new videos to see it in the water
@@DarrylBlackBlackfishFishing Ha! Aliey and her parents are originally from RI!
I’m gonna check that stuff out right now!
@@DarrylBlackBlackfishFishing do you mind emailing me the link?
@@perfectfitboating yes no problem. Need a place to send it. But it’s called total boat penetrating epoxy.
clea whit presure washer better and faster
Thanks for the tip Jose! But most of the teak was too worn out and cracked. And a lot of it was missing. 🍻
used plastic playwood
sanding fiberglass is really deep...shit
this guy used kilz adhesion primer and then valspar storm exterior paint and it's held up for quite a while now. and it's alot cheaper.

Hey John thank you so much for the tip and for sharing the video! Definitely cheaper!
Since we’ve been using the boat, we’re thinking of using a mildew and mold resisten carpet. We just get way too much mildew here in south Florida.
Thanks for the comment! 🤙
