Red face Engine Hatch

This year, I will be replacing the upholstery on the engine hatch. Tim's Tops and Trims in Laconia did a great job in the past. Previous owner of the boat replace the factory vinyl with cheap vinyl and it shows. Big time! Tim will be replacing with original vinyl. He will be using Tenara thread that will last a lot longer than the original.

I had replaced the speakers last winter with the DC Gold waterproof speakers. They sound fantastic with new JBL marine unit. The original speakers were Babb speakers, no longer in production. The cones seperated from the frame after 21 years of use! The Blaupunkt unit is still good but plays tapes only. Upgrade to a CD unit with Ipod jack and 180 watts. Check out www.rocktheboataudio.com for price comparison.
