Last update

8th of December, 2010

Since the last update a lot of work have been done for the external surfaces preparation, before the final polyurethane spray painting. The fairing with epoxy filler was really a hard work and, up to 7 coats of plastering and sanding, in some cases was necessary to obtain satisfactory results. After this all external surfaces was painted with two hands of epoxy primer and, after additional work of fine filling and sanding, two final coats of bicomponent polyurethane spray painting  was applied.
After painting, all hatches, portholes and windows was mounted, then actually the boat is completely sealed and watertight.
Also internal finishing work started again and some progresses was made.

The following pictures start from the most recent and go back.

External protection has been finally partially removed and protection from sun is added. Now it has been really too warm to work under total plastic cover as before.
