Cockpit roof propped up. You will note throughout the boat, particularly in the stateroom and outside of hull, there will be white, gray, green, yellow and various dark spots on the fiberglass. These spot form where the boat is sanded into different colored layers of fiberglass. The men apply different color layers when glassing to better indicate high, low, or imperfect spots in the surface, and where more sanding is required. After all surfaces are properly prepared these surfaces will be painted with special paints that ought to last thirty years or more. The paint on Gliding Ganders hull and interior was original from 1979.
Salon/cockpit roof in place. Hope those windows show up real soon. Tony's not worried but it is killing me.
Remainder of the salon and cockpit roof (shown in grey).
Tony working Saturday fiberglassing interior joint where cabin meets washboard. The gray fiber board, below white area, is the chase where galley utility lines will be run. Wonder if the So-Deep gang could certify the location of these utility locations upon completion?
Come on windows!!!
Stateroom computer cabinet door and drawer. Note, all wood floors, shelves, moldings, doors and trim is made from old Virginia fense boards. There will be much more about the use of fense boards later in the blog when the wood work is completed.
