Coaming Box Teak Trip

(1/2) > >>

Dulcinea:
Does anyone have/know of a pattern or template for the teak trim around the coaming boxes?  Alternatively, has anyone had a carpenter do theirs that could be replicated?  They might not all be exactly the same size, but I'd be willing to take a chance.

Dulcinea:
Obviously I meant TRIM.

You mean the coaming in the cockpit, right?  I made my own, using the old trim trim as a pattern.  The only painful part was getting the curves right (and matching) on either end; I used an electric scrollsaw to do this.  Wasted some wood as I messed a couple up!  It was not a difficult job. Anybody with a rudimentary woodshop could make it in a couple of hours, probably less.  But teak is expen$ive.

I could probably trace the pattern and sent it to you if you would like (sadly, right now I don't have any time to make any!!).  If you had the inclination, you could get the teak cut and then make the corners yourself using a manual scrollsaw.  The original coaming used a simple butt joint to connect the curved ends to the straight strips; you can get fancy there if you wish. Another area to get fancy is to rabett the straight pieces so they curve over - and conceal - the fiberglass.

Check out http://www.rollinscs.com/boatpages/projects2page.htm "New Coaming Locker Trim". Richard mounted the screws on the surface - looks pretty good.  I countersunk and doweled.

I believe they are all the same size and made from templates at the factory. Some of the other Pearson models have an identical coming box trim.  I have new ones I made from starboard.  They are one piece instead of the original 3 piece trim. They are four years old and still like new.

Alma:
I still have the router patterns for my one piece Starboard pieces!
