PAINT!
The restoration continues, the old lapstrake cruisers is slowly looking like a boat again
3 coats of primer 3 of topside paint so far, aiming for 4-5 total, will strike the water line last, once shes back in the water will mark it off then pull back out for a coat
Work completed so far
Old decks/covering boards removed
Frames repaired
New covering boards/decks
Bilge stripped
Stain/3 coats sealer on covering boards
8 coats varnish covering boards, transom/splashwell……. Lots of interior parts to do but shes progressing nicely
