Hello everyone. This past summer I, along with one of my brothers, purchased a 1987 460 Express Cruiser with the intention a doing a bit of work on it to turn it into a floating cottage. As with any project like this it took on a life of it's own. My two other brothers have joined us to work on it as well. We are having the best time on this project.
I have a blog now that I post regular updates on.

Hi Les
Thanks for following along. I always enjoyed watching others do renos (always loved This Old House) and am glad that there others out there that enjoy watching our project.
I think the product you are referring to is Starboard. Here is a link to where you can get it. It would be too expensive for me to get it in Canada .

I hope this helps

Thank you for your Time and information !I understand now. It is a plastic laminate and it is exact match to Tafisa Winter Cherry.

Tafisa is a melamine product with a particle board core. This wouldn't be suitable for a marine application. When I get to work tomorrow I will find out the supplier of the plastic laminate match and the colour number. The core we used was Baltic Birch. It is a very stable plywood that is excellent for laminate.
