Hi Charlie
The 35-3 doesn't use this as the ceiling, but has on the sides a teak
surfaced plywood, maybe 1/4" thick, with grooves formed in it to
simulate it being strips of teak (a better version of the 1979s basement
family room paneling). If we are talking the same thing... I have no
idea where one would find it, I've not seen it online. Southshore may
have an idea.
Alternatively, you could go with full teak ply. Or paint it white and
brighten up the space?
best,
Graham Collins

Thank you.
I was hoping that I might find a source for this material, perhaps
from someone who is familiar with wooden boat construction.
More likely a boat builder, including C&C, made them in house which is
likely what I will need to do.
Thanks again,

Thanks Charlie,
The only boat I had with a wooden ceiling in it was a Frers 33.
It had narrow strips with beveled edges held in by stainless steel
screws which allowed you to take them out and refinish if
required. I tried to attach/enclose a picture but the site doesn’t
seem to allow it to go through.

Thanks Rod--you obviously know your nautical terms, as do some
others on this list. Now a few more listers, including myself,
know what to call this 'planking'.
With that out of the way, back to draining the swamp! To wit:
some of this 'ceiling' in my V berth on my 1995 C&C 36 XL/kcb
has been destroyed by a water leak at my forward port hull deck
joint leak--since repaired.
What I am trying to find is a source of the ceiling to match my
original, which looks to be either ~1/4" teak or plywood with
V-grooves routed in on a 1 7/8" centers. The grooves run
longitudinally and I need a piece about 12 inches high and 24
inches long with the grooves running along the 24" direction. As
far as I can tell without cutting out a piece, this ceiling is
screwed into stringers (behind the 'ceiling') that appear to run
longitudinally at the top and bottom of the ceiling, which on my
boat runs under the V-berth cubby storage cabinets down to the
fiberglass beneath the V-berth cushion. The screws are covered by
bungs. I don't know if C&C manufactured this ceiling material in
house or had a source for it. I do think a lot of their boats had
this 'ceiling' on the inside of their hulls.
I would appreciate any leads on where I might find some of this
'ceiling' with the grooves already cut.
Alternatively, I may have to take a replacement piece of wood to a
local woodshed and have grooves routed in it or buy a router and
some appropriate wood and have at it myself.
Thanks in advance for any further help--as well as your
terminology lesson!

Hi fellow C&C 99 owners,
On the inside of the hull the covering applied is properly called
a ceiling. I am from a family of wooden boatbuilders and we don’t
like to use terminology associated with houses on boats but
ceiling is defined below from the Glossary of Nautical terms.
*/ceiling/*
Planking attached to the inside of the frame
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_nautical_terms#frame>s
or floor
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_nautical_terms#floor>s
of a wooden hull, usually to separate the cargo from the hull
planking itself. The ceiling has different names in different
places: limber boards
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_nautical_terms#limber_boards>,
spirketting
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_nautical_terms#spirketting>,
quickwork
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_nautical_terms#quickwork>.
The lower part of the ceiling is, confusingly to a landsman, what
you are standing on at the bottom of the hold of a wooden ship
