Familiar Childhood Smell

The cabin smells like my grandparents basement so there is some serious scrubbing in order. The previous owner removed the toe rails and never found the time to replace them, so the 60 some odd holes in the deck welcomed plenty of water and created mold and mildew.

The laminate used on the bulkheads and galley is pealing pretty bad so I might just hit it with some 80 grit and recover with some white formica. The fake teak looks dated anyways and blue and white is a simple theme.

The bunks just need sanded and a fresh coat of paint. The vinyl covering the interior hull is in good condition just needs a good scrubbing.

I need to take a closer look at the cushions, they may be salvageable and I know they are expensive to replace. Unfortunately I am missing one cushion in the galley area.

This is my main area of concern, the top of the compression post. I have a sneaking suspicion there is going to be some rotten deck core above that.

The electrical system is a joke, thankfully on a boat this size it's a pretty easy job to replace. I need to give some thought to what I want to install but will probably keep it pretty basic. Overall not bad, more cleaning than anything (I say that with my fingers crossed). Once it's all cleaned and sealed up it should make a good relaxing overnighter. All that's left before I get started is to lay the sails and rigging out and take inventory, hopefully I can get this accomplished this weekend.
