Preparing the vaka deck for painting

Three hours bewteen saturday and monday to prepara the vaka deck and cockpit for painting. Last saturday we coated all the holes for the screws in the false transom and on the vaka deck with clear resin. We used pipe cleaners! 

Then yesterday we scrubbed all surfaces to be painted (deck and cockpit) using sanders with 240 grit.

We then put a plastic curtain all around the vaka hull to prevent paint drops from falling over the painted hull sides.

Total work time to date: 757 hours
