Meet Therese C.

She had a layer of glass on the tops that had not bonded to the wood.

I found that AFTER painstakingly removing the multiple layers of old peeling paint.
pretty bad.


So I ended up ripping all the glass off, that's where it stands in the pics.
A quick penetrating coat of poly

After a lot of filling holes/slots/missing wood, and of course sanding

3 gal of short strand
100 pieces of sandpaper later
Sealed!


Then glass and paint, I need to take some more pics

She completed her sea trials after I worked on the cooling system.

Stay tuned, she's gonna be beautiful.

When it rains?
I sand and sand and polish ...........

Several coats of paint,

Stripper, wire wheel and polish....


She's coming along slowly, I need warm/dry to continue with the glass on the sides.

Cheers,

LCjeff
