The front fence w/ gate was a pain in the arse. The gate was jammed so tight it would not open. We used a 7' board and a bottle jack to spread the fence after removing some fence bolts.
I also used a brick chisel and a maul to smack the door hinges back straight which gave us almost a quarter inch clearance. Then drilled new fence bolts holes and the front fence holes. After all bolts were in and tight, removed the jack and 'walla' ...the gate works!
As you can see the patio furniture arrived so we started mocking it up.
Really looking good! The grey furniture looks quite good with the tan flooring. Hopefully laying the flooring went smoothly.

I was going to get tan wicker, but looking around on Ohana's site they had the grey for almost $200 less,,,,GREY it is then! Sumbrella cushions are Teal....odd combo, but it works for us.
Thanks, it went well, but I did make a mistake. The two back 'wing decks' are 24x25" sections of plywood & somehow I managed do turn one sideways(I swear I measured twice...blame it on paint fumes
). I did not discover this until I started putting the L trim back on, so I had to cut the vinyl, unscrew the ply, turn it, screw it back down and put a new piece of vinyl down. Thank goodness the stern section of fence covers the seam which is where the batteries live anyway.
A friend gave me a 6" x 2' long section of steel pipe. I filled it with concrete and the scale said it was 60lbs. After we flipped the vinyl onto the glue, we rolled the "roller back and forth to each other while standing on each side of the boat.....worked perfect, zero bubbles.
