Refitting the cockpit and galley of the catamaran *Squib* involves installing new cockpit drains, repairing delaminated interior panels, and refurbishing original cabin lighting. To improve cockpit drainage, the owner cuts new holes in the cockpit floor to relocate the drains to the corners, laminating wooden backing plates underneath with thickened epoxy to ensure the through-hull fittings sit flush.0:49 A flexible hose connects the new drain to the hull, though the owner notes the current hose material kinks easily and plans to source a more rigid, non-kinking alternative.18:15 Interior work includes cutting out delaminated sections of bathroom paneling, cleaning the substrate, and re-laminating the area with epoxy.6:26 The galley renovation involves sanding walls and preparing templates to seal unused holes in the cabinetry.4:12 The owner also cleans out storage compartments, salvaging electrical wiring and spare parts while discarding debris.13:07 The project concludes with plans to strip and polish the boat's original wood-and-brass cabin lamps to contrast with the newly painted interior surfaces.19:18
