My fuel tank hatch on my 1973 SF needs to be recored, anyone done this? Also has anyone paid to have it done, if so how much?

Hi, I re-cored my fuel tank hatch on my Seafari last year. Below is the link detailing my journey. It was my first time doing this type of work and it turned out great...

I know it's too late now. I bought a box and 1/2 of 3/8" end grain (Same as what's used in the original seacraft floors and decks) for $250 off CL. The guy has more. A box is 33 sheets 2ftx4ft. Hope this helps someone else who needs to recore hatches. I now have 50 2x4 sheets of 3/8".
