The inboard side and ceiling were uninsulated on mine and when I re-did it I left them uninsulated. I used a "sound down" kit from jamestown distributing. I cut and dry fit the foam panels and used the included mylar tape to seal the raw edges. The kit came with tack down pins. They are aluminu

You mean actually on the deck fiberglass, as in stuff that leaked under the masking tape because it's nearly impossible to get a good seal on textured non-skid? The citrus based strippers won't hurt fiberglass. Under *no* circumstance would I recommend a strong stripper like Jabsco. It will

In the olden days, when I was getting my skipper’s certificate, we had to do all the manoeuvres, including getting in and out of the slip, without the use of the engine (and then again using it). But that art is gone. Now, if I tried to dock under sail there would be a crowd with pitchforks awai
