Replacing Damaged Cabinet

The Wicked Wahine has a wicked hole in the aluminum skins on the passenger side towards the rear of the trailer.  The hole goes from the outer skins through the back of the storage cabinet above the dinette and punched through the bottom of the cabinet.  Our theory is the trailer backed into a tree branch that made this major damage.  Previous owners placed a vent cover over the hole...but the cabinet on one side was unusable and looked bad underneath with this big gaping hole.  Steve spent a good 6 hours tearing the cabinet out, using old wood to make a template for the new.  More time consuming than we thought, but isn't it always?
