Unfortunately, the web site is work in progress and the photo and video galleries are the part that never seems to get done!* I don't have any of the 'before' photos with me at the moment; they are sitting in a photo album on the boat in Greece (pre digital I'm afraid) and we are in Australia at the moment, but I have attached a couple of the 'after''photos.
The first owner specified a black saloon, so all of the teak was stained jet black and all of the furniture was black with mother of pearl inlays; it was a bit like a chinese restaurant!* The master cabin was done in*French antique style*with blue velvet upholstery*and a shag pile carpet.* It had to go.
We decided to return the saloon to a teak finish, but in a more contemporary style than the traditional trawler look.* For the master cabin we used maple to make it lighter, again in a more contemporary style.* It was a major project as both areas were stripped bare and toally rebuilt, but we think it was worth it to get what we wanted.
