The toggle switches are similar and the switch panel will be remade to original but with different logos, the clocks have to match the engines so wasn't much I could do with them, the only thing I've added that wasn't there is the pod for the plotter, colour will be the same, that's about it really

The guys have been back on the boat doing the hood, I've put a deeper bathing platform on it, still work on progress, stainless frame, laid up GRP flat panel then teak deck on it, I've grafted the original steps back on the new platform

The bbq looks good I already have the deck fitting in place, I've got a cooker in the cabin , actually it's quite well equipped with fridge, cooker, hot and cold water, a proper bog and shower, a little better than the rib, actually a lot better than the rib
