Hull Paneling Replacement

[Herodotus]

Hey all,

Just finished velcroing the plexiglass cover to my instrument panel and weatherstripping the companionway. And I'm thinking about beginning my first "large" project - the missing hull panels in the Salon and V Berth.

I followed the conversations back in November 2009, of contacting H&L Lumber. Has any one done this project? The starboard salon paneling is still in place, so I'd need to buy/construct the port salon and the entire v berth.

Anyone have any ideas, any tips? I'm also going to construct an awning of sorts for the cockpit/foredeck.

Thanks all for advice/"good goings"/"you're biting off more than you can chew here, bub."
