Well as I continue to wait on parts I have decided to turn my attention to the interior. I am going to replace the headliner with FRP panels. I would like to add a flip down TV just behind the cockpit. Obviously I can not hang this from the panels. Any hints on hanging accessories from the ceilings?

We use a flip down bracket in the cockpit of our boats for a 19in LED TV that is connected to our Garmin Navigation system. 4 bolts, TV folds up flat and can be rotated when in the down position.

I will see if I can get the supplier with PN tomorrow.

I actually plan on using one myself above the dinette.

There are lots of ribs and spars above the headliner. Once you take the headliner down you will see them. They are plenty strong to support the TV. The overhead cabinets are actually held by screws into them and into the extrusion at the junction of the roof and wall.
