New mahogany SS interior is on it's way from Mike at Nautical Lumber. Can't wait to hit the water. My 4 year old is so anxious.

I haven't really done anything to it but use it.

I'm gettin all Itchy too, I have my boat all clean, waxed up, (new toys added) and pointed toward the Bay. I'm hoping to launch this Saturday, if not, I'll launch on Memorial day weekend (my usual launch date) for a great kick off to "SUMMER". I like to drive my car out of my driveway with the Whaler in tow "right" after the parade passes my house, that way it feel's like the whole parade is just for me and my Whaler.

Hit the water yesterday. Caught a few sand bass, got a sunburn and had a great time. The lake was full of classic boats none of which were whalers.

What's wrong with the interior in your photo?

Joe, only the sides are original mahogany. That's where I got the layout for he SS interior. The rest is plywood I threw together in a couple of weekends. 3 years later only the sides held up.
