Counter tops have been the next big item to install. At one point I had no idea how I was going to get it all built, since the stern section was my woodworking shop. Fortunately, being able to use Pearl as our new work are has been a game-changer in finishing out the build of the stern. It has also provided plenty of free entertainment for all of our friends on charter boats who get a kick out of me and my saws.
First step in counter installation was to make cardboard templates of each section. Once I had templates I simply traced the shapes onto three-quarter inch plywood and cut them to fit. There was a little shaving to get the perfect curve against the hull, but it was minimal. Sasha gave me a hand lugging around these pieces of plywood and it's a good thing because they were heavy!
All my counter tops are now in place. My next step is to arrange and weld together my sinks, then cut a huge hole to install them.
