A photo of one of my 42 Custom sister ships shows a completely different stair arrangement than on my boat. My boat has steep stairs similar to a 34 (but better). The sister ship stairs are integral to a drawer cabinet that sits in front of the engine access panel. They look less steep, but it must be more difficult to access the engine.
From: John Christopher via CnC-List Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2018 4:11 PM To: ALAN BERGEN Cc: John Christopher ; C&C Subject: Stus-List Refinishing the stairs on C&C 34 Alan, I have the same problem (stairs too steep) on my LF 38 and was thinking or building new stairs completely (father in law has a professional shop with all the woodworking tools). Was thinking of building something more modern like the Beneteau where the sides of the stairs curve up, and having metal grab rails. I drew out the plans but it is an intensive project for 4-6 steps. Your suggestion seems elegant and straight forward. Can you share a picture of the finished product? /John On Oct 4, 2018, at 12:16 PM, ALAN BERGEN <trya...@alumni.usc.edu> wrote: When I took mine apat, I don't remember whether they were glued (I don't think so), but they came apart pretty easily. I found the stairs too steep, so I split the sides down the middle, added a piece of 1 x 6 teak in between them, glued the pieces together using biscuits, and extended the dados through the piece that I added. It's now a lot more comfortable going up and down the stairs. I finished the stairs with Watco teak oil, and added Treadmaster to make the steps less slippery.
