O wise boating Comrades
I have a sink/ cabinet outside under the Sundeck hard top I want to remodel. I am aware that the teak needs to be refinished and have been waiting to get to this project to address that as well. As you can see, the unused wine cooler is a poor fit. The original ice maker died a couple of years ago and this seemed to fit the hole and just never worked as we thought. I considered a "built in" Raritan SS but just really don't need it. We buy block ice and and also make it in the fridge as well. Obviously I need access to the bottom of the sink. I plan to purchase some teak locally and have a face frame, etc. milled by a local cabinet shop we service. The problem to be is that the frame size is so awkward. A second similar door wouldn't work. Two doors bigger might be OK? Possibly a pull out trash can mounted to an appropriate door? A raised panel door would not match the boat so I need other ideas. I also am interested in adding a thin granite top beneath the sink. How thin can I go?? Can I cut/ fit this myself? Or are special skills and tooling needed? Thanks all in advance. I yield the floor.....
