Commander #256 (Ceili)

[Chance]

Hello all,
I'll use this thread to maintain progress on the work I'm embarking upon with our Commander. To commence, I have focused my efforts in the stern section and will progressively move forward. For now, this is what I'm doing:

1) Fill over 3 dozen holes (drilled by PO's).
2) Repair / restore fiberglass that was cut out for previous outboard motor tiller.
3) Remove and replace backstay chainplate and knee.
4) Fabricate a gas can shelf on each side of the motor well
5) Incorporate a transom stringer, that will double as the aft shelf support
6) Recore and skin the lazarette locker cover

What I'm missing and in need of your help to locate a source is the following:

1) Rubber gasket for the knife edge seal for the lazarette cover and forward hatch.

2) One (1) clamshell ventilator (aka: extractor). I have only one of the two originals. A PO installed a PERKO, which as you can imagine is a hideous match.

Heres a couple of photos, and more to follow as progress is made

Respectfully,
Chance Smith
