Our 47' Post, "Post Script"

We launched last week and are getting ready to use her in our wedding which will be this Saturday. She has been in the yard for a year, experiencing a total refit. This is Post hull # 102.

Great boat - the blue hull gives it a nice look. What kind of power, and is she marrying you for the boat? Interesting that you chose such a high mast for the sat. does it have a wide base to withstand a prolonged yaw?

If she is, she can't be all bad.......

I agree the hull looks great.
Congrats

Looks great!! You should be really proud of the work.

One picture looks like you replaced the side salon windows with a single piece or two? I have a crack in one of the center sliding windows. Thinking of converting the whole setup to fixed glass since I never open them.

Is the glass still in plastic channel strips and caulked from the outside? Or caulked\bonded to the fiberglass house structure itself all the way around? I'm nervous that the house structure could flex and crack the glass if it is directly bonded and not in the channel strips that give it some room to move (mine still cracked). I've seen this done on a few 80's models but haven't been able to see how it was done from the inside.

Thanks for any info you can provide. Best of luck with the boat.

Replaced the windows with fixed dark smoke acrylic.... 3/8" in two pieces. It takes 13' of material... bedded with black 5200.
