My cabin sole is not original (replaced 6 / 7 years ago), but there's one
painful aspect of the piece to port under the settee; to remove it I have
to either unstep the mast, or dismantle the settee base (the flat
immediately under the cushions). Just something to look out for...

Didn't have to do either on my 35/3. Interesting! How do you dismantle

Since the mast is still stepped, I had to remove the port settee base on my
34+. It came off with the removal of about a dozen flat head screws -- a little
tight around the sides where the cushions sit and a couple of minor scratches
which will be hidden by the cushions.

My settee may not be original either. Essentially, there's a flat piece of
plywood (with attached fiddles to keep the cushions in place) that's
screwed to the fiberglass liner that's attached to the hull. The
interference issue is the little "pan-handle" of the board that is to port
of the mast.

I guess this proves once more that there are as many ways to finish cabin soles
as there are boat owners. Maybe I'll try ceramic tile next time around. Cool on
