Whirlpool Decking -- Nearing Completion (Warts and All)

We are generally happy with the results we're having for the decking around the whirlpool -- it isn't quite as perfect as we would like, but nothing else is either...

We took a break yesterday sitting in the whirlpool relaxing, and then today, you can see that I was able to get the shelf put on the top of the backsplash...  Now, we just have to lower the whirlpool into place on top of the decking.  That will be a definite challenge, but we'll just go slow and easy, and hopefully, we won't make too many marks on the decking...  The trick will be to have it exactly positioned when it first makes contact; otherwise, the surface will mar...

Working on bracing today along with getting the chair rail put on the bedroom side of the whirlpool wall so we can have him drywall down to the chair rail...
