Moving on to the last big projects...

As challenging as it can be with the weather at this time of the year, we’ve manage to move along with two of our last big projects. The repainting of the mast and prepping below the waterline.

One side of the mast has been through the usual motions of sanding, acid wash and spot priming as well as multiple coats of the primer. We’ve now turned the mast and been busy prepping for the acid wash followed by spot priming before we will put multiple coats of primer on that side of the mast. Pete has also made an improvement to the mast by adding a drainage system above the deck. This has been glassed and painted also.
Pete has also started on the hull below the waterline. He’s been preparing the fibreglass surface where required and has removed any obvious osmosis over the last few weeks. Now the glass is exposed and drying out before re-glassing.
But sometimes the weather doesn’t play along and so we keep busy on the rainy days with all the many little jobs like making extra shelves, hanging doors, wiring, plumbing and whatever else is ready to be mounted :-) So lots is happening all the time and we are both looking forward to a new shiny painted mast soon. Watch this space and Facebook for photos coming in the next few weeks...
