Month: July 2010

July 7 from 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm: cut and milled rough 1×12 ash stock for the taint guard. From 8:45pm to 10:30pm: sanded hull preparing for faring compound. July 8 from 7:30 am to 9:30 am: applied final epoxy wood fillet to the keel and fiber glassed it to the boat. From noon to…

I passed on the faring compound today and cut, fit and mounted the purple heart keel. I need to fiber glass the keel to the hull so to apply faring compound at this time would be putting the cart before the horse. Started at 9:30 am and ended at 2:30 pm.

Today I fared the entire hull and then fiber glassed it. Tomorrow I will put faring compound over the hull, sand it smooth and prepare it for paint. Started at 7:30 am and ended at 1:00 pm.

June 30 from 8:30 pm to 9:45 pm: fared hull with 80 grit in preparation for fiber glass tape. July 1 from 8:30 am to 1:30 pm: taped all seams with double layer of 6 ounce fiber glass. Tomorrow, I will fare all the high spots and fiber glass the hull.
