Hey listers, I've mentioned a couple times on here that a previous owner (two owners ago) completely reconfigured the interior of my boat.
As a result, I was able to buy her back in October with a good survey for a song... because - let's face it - most people don't want to buy a boat with an owner-customized interior. C&C purists will probably gasp in horror, but I think the interior layout works. The galley area is now the entire port side, and the custom starboard bench pulls out to make a nice-sized bed. The only downside is there's kind of nowhere to sit and eat. The reason I explain all of this is my interior I get lots of questions when I post pictures. These photos were taken when I was installing all my new LED interior lighting, so it's a bit of a mess. Go ahead and stare at my disfigured interior...

They are from where a previous owner had installed a tangled series of add-on electrical panels. I removed all of them when I rewired the boat. Alas, now I have holes. I thought about buying some beadboard and covering it up - cutting the beadboard to go around the chart table, around the motor cooling system, and around the companionway, but that just seems like a lot of messy work. Does anyone have any ideas for covering these holes? The best idea I currently have is cutting some plywood, sticking it in the holes, fairing it with wood filler and painting it, but I figured I'd ask here first as you guys always come up with something I hadn't thought of. PS. - A friend suggested I hang some paintings... my wife nixed that idea.
