I replaced the overhead panels on my 29-2 last year. Originals were 1/8 plywood covered with vinyl that had discoloured and peeled up along the edges. Replaced them with new 1/8 plywood covered with thin "iron on" laminate. The product is called "Preglued Melamine - Architectural Grade Veneer" made by Bennett and available at Home Depot (you can find it with the 3/4 inch wide rolls used to cover the edges of shelves). It comes in a roll 12 inches wide x 99" and is available in a variety of wood grain finishes as well as white and almond. I used the white for my boat. It is really simple to use. You just cut out new plywood and iron on the melamine with an old household clothes iron. Once the glue sets you trim the edges. The new panels look great after a year.

It could be a couple of repairable things though. I think the most likely is the brushes and commutator. Brushes are pretty easy to replace and the commutator can be polished up. The circuit between the brushes and commutator needs to be solid for the solenoid to have enough current to pull the fork that throws the drive gear into the flywheel. If you want to save a buck or are in dire need you can disassemble and repair the starter but for the time and effort required it is probably better to have it rebuilt or replaced. The wife and I were in a foreign Spanish port when the starter on the boat we were chartering failed. We managed to disassemble the whole starter and cleaned out all the carbon dust and dirt. We cleaned the commutator with the only thing we had, balsamic vinegar. The brushes were worn and needed replaced but the cleaning managed to get us started. You might also check the quality of the connections and wires powering your starter.

I'm not at the boat at the moment, I think they are 16s. Anyway, I am looking at the Anderson 28ST (two speed, self tailers). Is the 28 too big, too small, what do you have on your 27? Cheers, Paul.
