I'd not spent much time on Sabrina over the last couple of weekends but managed to rebuild the rear hatch cover. The cover was still covered in vinyl and I assumed that it should be ok and might just need a little filling, but like most things on her once I'd striped off the covering I found that the plywood was shot so I decided to cut a new piece from an off cut that I had.
The problem that I wanted to avoid was having to shape the roof, all the edges on Sabrina are curved, its one of the things that I love about her. My woodworking skills are not bad, but if I'm not "in the zone" then it doesn't always work out how I expect, plus once glued, it ain't going to come apart again.
However it worked out and I was more than happy with the result, photos will follow when I mount it.
