CLEANING THE BOTTOM |
Rod began by cleaning the bottom and repairing a hole in the hard bottom left from a pad eye gone bad. Thursday another round of cleaning and then sanding the hard bottom in preparation of the moisture barrier.
MOISTURE BARRIER AND NO MORE HOLES. |
FRESH BOTTOM PAINT |
Friday morning this project was getting old and Rod had an nice sunburn to make things a little more uncomfortable. The moisture barrier went on and you cannot even see the repair job he did on the two holes from the pad eye. Now this is progress. Late that afternoon he taped off the waterline and applied two coats of bottom paint which we had left over from the bottom job on It's Perfect.
This morning we hoisted the dinghy up once again with the main sheet halyard and splash we are back in the water once again. It feels great! We are now no longer marooned on It's Perfect. Another big job is now checked off our continuous list!
TIME FOR A LAND BREAK |
