I need storage and there is not alot of room. Need to find out whether the foam is really needed. Will doing some cleaning tommorrow. First task is the the starboard aft locker. It is black with gease. I don't think it has ever been cleaned or painted. The plan will be to add rolling shelf for a cooler above the removeable fuel tank.
I am using the same cleaner used in the past. Called Purple something, like that. But is very good taking on the grease.

A knowledgeable sailor on sailnet suggested in so many words, it would not be a good idea to remove the foam. I had not thought about hitting a stump in the planned sailing area, Kerr Lake VA/NC.
Doing work on this boat is going to take some adjustment. The others were saltwater where the O'Day will be in fresh. Pat said I could not take this one into the bay. Probably right, it not as heavy duty as the 416 for that matter the Westerly.
