Looks REEL neat and nice.
I did some thing similar in the cuddy cabin and it helps keep things organized.
 Also, we went Dolphin searching yesterday but found none.  t^

Hey HR, any specififcs on how you did that?  What epoxy?  Did you cut the liner away behind the teak and bond to the fiberglass?  How did you keep the teak in place while the epoxy cured?
  Always wnated to do that in my cabin, just couldnt figure out how to w/o putting screw holes through the hull!!!  Thanks

For the top section I used an epoxy that said it worked for wood and Fiberglass.
I marked the carpet from the pieces of wood and cut it away.

There was glue that remained on the fiber glass from the carpet..
I scrapped as much of it off as i could..  then in 3 locations , Top Middle and Bottom I gouged up the fiberglass.

I then applied the epoxy (the type that is in the tube that sends it out equally)  to the top middle and bottom of the teak..  half the tube in 3 mountains of epoxy for each pc of wood.

I then mixed the epoxy on the back or the teak and put them up.

The one by the seat i wedged a container up on it.. and the other one I was able to use a boat pole .. I let them sit for the week.. 1 day would have been fine..  then I installed the rod holders.

The ones on the bottom where easier t^  I used a 5 minute epoxy..  since I didn't think I'd be able to support them to dry..  I was able to let go in 5 minutes  30 minutes later I hung the rods t^

Nice Job there Hotrod!  TT^
Looks great!

The bottom rod racks might be a concern underway in rough conditions though. Look to do something to stop the rods from lifting up near the tip end. Just my 2 cents. Hate to see you scratch those rods after all that hard work.
