We finally got the decks soaked in CPES (about two gallons worth) along with the coach top and a second coat on the cabin sides.















The white patch was a Sanitred test. Interesting stuff. Kinda like trying to paint with thick glue. We're further along with sanding the rest of the wood, bulwarks and such. I hope to start putting down varnish next week.

Thanks. She's a sweet sailing old girl who should look even better than this when I'm done.

Boats are refered to in the feminine because they look so damn sexy when they get all cleaned up. She is gonna be beautiful when you are done.

Lotsa work to be sure but well worth it. The upkeep is much easier than taking it down to scratch. Especially the way I'm doing things. She'll be a very dry boat when finished.
