The winter of 2015-2016 has mainly been quite mild so far, lots of mild weekends for working on the interior of Cloud Nine. The previous owners have made many nice modifications most of which I will keep in-place. Many of the modifications that I have done so far are electronics oriented. The Humminbird chart plotter from my previous boat is much more functional than the sonar unit onboard, so I decided to switch them out. Also added a sound system, a amplified TV\FM antenna and a 12 volt TV with a DVD player. 
When I purchased Cloud Nine last September, the owner included the head door which had never been installed. I told him that I would figure out something to do with it. He had built a very nice platform to hold a Honda 2000 and a couple of gas cans across the dual Armstrong brackets. Unfortunately parts of it were suffering from water intrusion and needed to be replaced. Here's what I came up with. I cut the door down to suitable size, placed it rough side up on the brackets and marked where to cut so that it would lay flat. Cut the slots and attached it. The rough surface of the (inside) of the door seems to be pretty non-slip. I ran the AC off the Honda for a while and it stayed perfectly in-place.
I cut the door with a regular circular saw. It probably didn't do my blade a lot of good.
My next project is setting up the Honda for extended run using the boats fuel tank.
