As I move into the last week before I trailer
Look Far to Florida for the cabin canvas and the Cedar Key Boat Meet, the work is about sanding and painting and building the parts.
It's finally getting warm enough to open up the shop for ventilation while I paint, but it snowed last Monday. I have spent a lot of time this week in a respirator:
Here, in sequence, is the hull with primer (2 coats) and 2 part polyurethane paint (again, 2 coats). Topsides and the boot stripe will come later. I am hoping the half oval rub strake for the keel arrives before I have to flip her to finish the top.
