Hi Greg, Thanks for the info. I was wondering how to dismantle the cabinetry. What do you have to do and where are the screws? Do you have to take the sink area apart and then the back panel? How is that back pannel connected to the side bulkheads? It sure looks like a major job and a PITA. How did you route the new hoses from the forepeak to the thru-hulls?
