Snow Lily | Thursday, April 5, 2012

After a light sanding, the final sections of newly-recored hull were ready for their new inner skins.  I cut two layers of fiberglass to fit, and installed the new material in epoxy resin.  I extended the forward patch enough to cover a nearby test hole that I'd drilled early in the inspection process.


     


I spent the remainder of the day preparing and, eventually, installing many small patches of fiberglass, both inside and outside, covering the old through hull openings and patching several sections of the underside of the deck that required reinforcement.  Inside the boat, I installed two layers overall the through hull repairs, and a single layer over the deck patches.

         

         

    

On the outside through hull patches, I installed 2-3 layers of material, depending on the depth of the previously-ground circular areas around each old hole.
