New finish

With the new bottom installed, boat flipped back up, it's time to remove layers and years of old finish. Tried some chemical options, without any luck or good results. The only thing working is elbow grease, scraper and a heat gun.


The screws for the sides at the shear lines had given up years ago. Removed all screws, plugged holes, clamped down, new silicon bronze screw and bungs.


Hull sides and deck sanded down with long boards for a fair and even finish.



After the last sanding, the sides are ready for bleaching.
