Circe | Friday, April 16, 2010

I wrapped up a few loose ends and small projects.

The little cover hatch for the table leg receptacle had cured overnight, so after testing the fit once more, I sanded the surface smooth to prepare it for varnish buildup.  The first photo shows the initial fitting before any sanding.

    
    


I continued the installation of the teak strip boarding pads.  Through the new epoxy plugs I installed yesterday, I drilled and tapped for the fasteners, then secured the strips with sealant and machine screws.  They'd be removable for future repainting efforts.



Finally, I laid out and installed hardware for a set of my retractable lazy jacks:  a pair of cheek blocks on the mast above the spreaders; four strap eyes on the boom; a cleat on the front of the mast; and a few small turning blocks for the 1/4" line.
