Marine Trader 34dc Aft cabin rebuild

[sailtones]

Hi everyone.

I am thinking about doing this to my boat. Those who know the model will understand the drawing, and the reason I am contemplating it.

What do you think? Am I completely mad?!?

For those that don't know the model, I am going to cut the aft cabin off and turn her into a sundeck, which gives me a queen walk around bed and separate head and shower.
Also remodel the flybridge.

Cheers.
T.

Looks good to me.
You get more useable aft deck space and a walk around bed would be nice.

Looks like a lot of hours.

I also think it would be a good adjustment-- A big project and besides the added space you would have a new aft deck and fresh portlights lots of benefits!

Ambitious.

Don't know you well enough. But what does it matter if you are.

I wish you success if you decide to do the job.
It is ambitious, but doable. Will you be working with wood or glass? Take lots of pictures, there are sane people that will be interested in doing this.
