Dory 5

< Back to Oyster Dory

Tuesday

After final preparations and cleanup, I used a mixture of thickened epoxy to begin some of the minor repairs needed, including filling some of the dry-rotted areas of transom and “sole” inside the boat, and regluing the loose existing fiberglass on the port side of the hull (and a smaller area to starboard).  As needed, I used temporary screws (covered with tape to avoid epoxy getting in the screw heads) to secure the tabbing to the hull while the epoxy cured.

Total time billed on this job today:  2 hours
