It was pretty easy to do, I just used the old table as a template and traced it out on a piece of plywood. Since I was able to control the material I used ¾” plywood instead of the MDF that they used in the original. I expect that to make it last a lot longer than the original did. I also took the time to hand rub quite a few coats of polyurethane on everything which should make it sealed up tight enough that it will never have moisture in the wood. Make sure you test fit it between the dinette benches before you do too much work on the edges or the finish. Mine was off by just a bit and needed to be cut tighter in order to fit, I am glad that I noticed that before it was all done.

The dinette table is warped - it looks more like a skateboarding park. Does anyone have any suggestions on purchasing used parts for this boat? Thanks so much.
