Only the thin teak and holly veneer of the sole is bad--otherwise the screwed-in boards (4) that make up the sole are fine. After about 10+ years of racing crew activity (mostly throwing cans, bottles down below plus occasionally dropping of other gear on the sole (winch handles, etc. ) along with a previous short-lived attempt of mine to sand the current veneer, it's time to do this job right and for less than the 2 boat bucks it cost when I had the yard do it previously (they replaced entire sole). I will remove the pieces and glue the vinyl to the old veneer, which can be trimmed with a knife, to get reasonable matches to the teak and holly pattern. Have any listers gone this route with sprucing up their cabin sole? If so, are there any pitfalls to avoid before I begin this latest DIY project?
