Most of the 53MY's I've seen have the "popcorn" ceiling with no visible structural elements. The photo below was off YW and I copied it for inspiration. It has a structural grid on the ceiling, which is smooth and painted. Is this original Hatteras in certain years? I am assuming it is on top of the laminate and decorative, not structural. Comments? Thanks.

Re: Flybridge deck/Back deck roof
Mine has the grid and no popcorn ... debating whether to paint or to add some panels to get a flush look. Either thin starboard or maybe even white Formica. Panels would also allow to add some recessed LEDs

The popcorn was added to later years. I wish they would have never switched from the smooth.
