Sanding and more

Weather has been (and still is) nothing short of miserable, with continuous rain, low temperatures and high humidity which made painting almost impossible. So we sanded, hopefully for the last time, with 240 and 320 grit (120 only to remove the remaining epoxy drips).



In the meantime we purchased the rudder hardware and one more porthole for the cockpit


From our sporadic painting experiment, it seems that we will need a primer under the the enamel, so went shopping in Bari to purchase the Boero Giano primer that is especially made to work with the Boero Altura TC one-pot polyurethane enamel. Hope that is puts an end to the search...

Total work time to date: 688 hours
