Iota Refit | Saturday, March 15, 2008

Over the past several days, I continued the daily process of sanding and revarnishing the sea hood, coamings, and forward hatch frame.  Today, I applied the 6th coat to the sea hood and hatch frame, the final coat before installation.  The coamings, being two-sided, would require another week or so before the varnishing was complete to allow installation.

    
    


Next, I spent several hours cleaning up the excess sealant and tape from around the deck hardware.  Most of the deck hardware was now complete, though there were still a few pieces requiring installation that I'd get to soon.  I installed the new lifelines to check their fit.


         


I laid out and installed the new vinyl for the name, hailport, and registration numbers.  She was really starting to look like a boat again!
