2000 Rinker 340 Fiesta Vee Cabinets

Was wondering if anyone out there could give me a hand with an issue I am having. During a trip in what I would consider mildly rough waves all of the cabinets shifted in the boat. I contacted Rinker and they have no drawings or designs of how the cabinets were originally installed or where any of the support braces should be. I know it would be a pain but I was wondering if someone that has the same boat could maybe take the drawers out of there cabinets and possibly take some pictures of where the support braces are and where everything ties together. I know it is a lot to ask but I think this is my last resort to try to get things back together the right way.

Thanks in advance

Bill

    Bill,

    I am sorry to hear about your issue...sounds like a total pain in the neck. I have a 2001 340 and would be happy to take some pics, but I may not get back to the boat for a couple of weeks.Do you need uppers/lowers or both?

    Been out in some pretty rough stuff on lake Michigan, but the only issue I had was with my refrigerator door falling off. Hang in there...I would be beyond **** at this point

    Best

    Kurt.

    Kurt,

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah was kind of shocked since it wasn't that bad that pretty much the lower section came apart. Shifted enough that it cracked the counter top and made a mess. I would really appreciate any pictures that you can get. The main issue I am having now is that none of the lower drawers are lining up. Basically you cannot shut any of the drawers or doors without them hitting on the side or the tops. I have gotten most of it back in place but it seems my issue now is the support side panels. The drawers of course have the side slides that screw to 2 panels, one on each side. Rinker has no drawings of where the supports should be or how many there were.

    If you could get pics of the inside setup of the lowers that would be great. Just need to see what was used to hold the panels to the deck and how the puzzle went together.

    No rush since it has been this was for a few months trying to figure it out.

    Thanks again and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    That sounds like a mess!  I'm in lake MI a lot and have had some rough rides, but so far so good.  Knock on wood.
