Call West System, 866-937-879 they are extremely helpful and I am sure will turn you on to a few sources.
Mead gave me a name back in the 70s for a place in Michigan where we got some very nice Birch Marine Grade Plywood, ¼ and 1/8 they recommended for their DN Iceboat plans. I am sure they have other woods as well.

We replaced the two next to the mast, the one over the galley sink and the one over the walkway to the aft cabin. We left the white plastic one in the heads as it is over the shower. They are still held up with velcro, it seems to hold very well. We took out the florescents that were above them and put in down lights in the wood panels instead, an easy job as the wiring doesn't need to change. The down lights used to be halogen but we put Marine Beam LED inserts in them this year. Ken H. On 11 July 2013 17:37, Edd Schillay <e...@schillay.com> wrote: Ken, Is that interior your boat? I'm especially fascinated/interested in those (wood?) ceiling panels on each side of the mast and over the support railing in the galley. What are they made of? What make are those bright lights on either side of the mast? I have some white translucent panels on mine, which are cracked in places, kinda ugly, and they have lights underneath. Always wanted to replace them. There are two more, too - one above the galley in the walkway to the aft cabin and one in the head. All the best, Edd Edd M.

The 37+ is the last and best of the Rob Ball C&C's. (Yes Rob did the 34+ just after but the 34+ is just a baby 37+) Oh, and if you have never seen the aft cabin on a 37+ it looks like this: https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-012Obd94ATA/T00NoOqd4PI/AAAAAAAABDo/yzYMU FphrBo/w600-h434-no/Nina14.jpg My wife is quite fond of that cabin... The rest of the interior ain't too shabby either: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-SGUTt8WmoBs/TMzYnKHI4HI/AAAAAAAAJkg/_m8Hr 53wRsk/w958-h719-no/IMG_1779.JPG https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-aahIPlK4ALA/S3yIdzFKWOI/AAAAAAAAJkg/wKyCX dqfjDU/w958-h660-no/40b3p0203.jpg Need I say more??
