That is similar to what I did. However: 1) I had two instruments oriented vertically on each side of the companionway, so I used one rectangular piece of starboard for both replacement instruments on each side; 2) I filled in the large holes behind the Starboard as I described in my prior e-mail note; and 3) I discovered that sea foam Starboard is very close to the color of my deck gel coat, so I plan to replace my white starboard pieces with sea foam pieces one of these days. Relatively low on the priority list.

I think they were Kenyons. Anyway, I hate to admit it but I just covered the holes with StarBoard sandwiches and mounted the new instruments in the StarBoard.

Just never got around to filling the holes. Mostly because matching the headliner would be a pain. -- Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA
