Contessa Head Replacement -- Hole in Cabin Liner1092 viewsThis image shows the hole that remained when I was finished playing with the chainsaw. My thought had been good access to this dead space on the boat. Not only did I want to use more of this area but I was also thinking that it might be a good place to fit the compressor for a refigeration unit.
