Bridge Seating, the End

This thing has been sitting in our basement for a month. Every time we passed it, it looked up at us and said, "Finish me!"

So, we did just that.  First, a coat of primer and then some "Sandstone" color paint to match the deck. Next, a stainless piano hinge, cut to fit each door and latches to hold the doors closed. Frances added some door handles, probably from the Dollar Store, but they'll work great. She also carefully attended to a small cut in one of the seats with some magic patching stuff that actually works.

The stainless steel molding around the doors is from a 1960 28-ft. Luhrs that we owned many years ago. (We never throw away anything that is boat-related.) This molding is overkill for two small doors but we like the way it looks.

We added some rubber feet to the bottom and shimmed up the ones on the port side by 1/2-inch, so it would be level.

That's it. This seat goes on the boat tomorrow.
