Thanks Nick,
This is just the sort of complete answer that I had hoped for.
You may have remembered that it was you who advised me against canvassing the decks in favour of ply plus epoxy/glass and that remains my intention for the rather scruffy decks; I may even try your squeegee off the surplus technique for making them look canvassed. However, I really do want to canvas the cabin top partly for the experience and partly for some attempt at authenticity. Hopefully it'll last a bit more than 10 years if I do it and maintain it well and, frankly, after that it'll probably be someone else's problem!
Fair winds, Les
