Thank you Robert!

Luckily I don't have to work today and can cure my musclepain from sanding, hehe. Looks like I have to change my name from Jolly Roger to Sore Arm.

Most of it is done, just a small part on the starboard side of the bow. If I would have known what I was about to start when I thought about getting the under water part overhauled, I propably would have sold the boat!

Six days laying under the boat and SCRATCHING the old paint off is something I wasn't up to. This old stuff is so stubborn, it can't be sanded! I started sanding using 40 grain paper and have to find out that as soon as the old pain gets warmed up from the sanding paper, it starts to melt and clogged the paper.
I tried paint stripper and made things even worse. The whole crap ended in an ugly mess and had to be washed off immediately, because it attacked the gel coat.

Well, today I don't work on the boat. The family will show up in afternoon and my mother has made her famous Black Forest Cherry Tart: Yummie!!!

Have a great day as well!

Harry

Wish you guys would be here and party like hell

A pleasure, Harry. The boat has been finished for two weeks, but the weather has been awful. Fog on both times I've been up to the boat. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to get out after the end of this week when we finish for the Easter break.
