Yes it's been painted over original interior coat. I added another photo of the stencil in the previous link above. That picture shows the tan interior in which the stencil is painted on. The link of the splashwells detail you posted is really great. I have not seen that before.
I read on specialty marine site that the anchor locker wood they sell is 42 5/8" up until 1976. That is the size of my locker. So according to them the size changed in 1977?
Purchased it from someone in Huntington Beach and seller didn't know previous history. Was able to verify with CA dvm before purchase that there were no pending liens
I will email bw tomorrow, that's a good idea. Thanks again Joe
