You have to be an Oday lover to take a pic like this, even in the backyard, she is still beautiful!

:dance:So this week has been a good week on my progress. I was able to install two ports, finish some teak and get the first coat of epoxy primkote on. You guys may remember that I painted before, but that didn't work. What happened is that i did not thin the primer before putting it on. it cured too hard, and so the topkote didn't adhere well. I had to grind it all off and start again. This time, the primekote looks good. I will put another coat on this week. then topcoat this weekend. Also should get my bomar hatch before the end of the week. it may require some epoxy work to make it fit.
I put some cetol on my teak lumber today. so far so good.
So while you guys were wasting your time sailing and soaking up the sun, i was working on my boat.......don't you feel foolish?!?

"There's nothin' quite as much fun as messin' with boats" Some guys have all the fun! :cry: I can't wait to get my boat out of the water! :D All kidding aside, I plan on taking mine off the trailer and putting it on boat stands in the fall. I may do the bottom for next year. I'd also like to do some gelcoat touch up on the deck. I usually play it by ear.
