Skeedeen 16

Friday

After my usual morning round of sanding and cleanup, I continued the varnish work on the toerails and forward hatch:  4 coats on the toerails, and five on the hatch and rod holders.

The two-sided companionway parts, including the folding top hatch and bifold doors, were ready for work on the second side now, after a couple days’ worth of cure time.  After some final preparations to the unfinished side, I applied the first of a couple coats of varnish to these pieces.

Total time billed on this job today:  2.5 hours

0600 Weather Observation:  25°, clear.  Forecast for the day:  Increasing clouds in the afternoon, rain overnight, 45°
