Pine deck

Grace's original tongue and groove deck would have been covered in painted canvas. However, at some stage in the past, the canvas was substituted by a textured decking material. After we removed the decking material, the pine deck seemed to be sound. Unfortunately the deck beams aft of the coachroof have to be replaced for new ones. That meant that the cockpit coaming and deck had to be removed. We will reuse the cockpit coaming but the deck will be substituted for a plywood deck sheathed on glass epoxy.
