As far as I know, the bulkheads (walls) of all CALs of that era were teak (plywood?), the ceilings were probably covered (where exposed, the pictures show most of the area covered by cabinetry) with some type of a foam-backed vinyl material, glued in place. As another CAL owner mentioned, be glad that the previous owner ripped that out, removal is messy! On our CAL 21 the ceiling area was smooth fiberglass that had been painted at the factory, on a 34 I would probably either do that (might need to apply an epoxy surfacing filler first to fill in the texture of the fiberglass on the inside of the hull) or if you want to get fancy, some thin cedar strips look real nice! I have the 1977 brochure and will scan the images and send them direct to you. Unfortunately, it really doesn't show the ceiling, but the aft bulkheads are visible.

The owner before me stripped out the ceiling and walls. He must have tossed it all. I need to replace items and was wondering what type of fabrics to use. Also does anyone have any pics of their interiou they would like to share.
