A very busy week at the yard. Lady J's
hull is pretty much ready for wet in, even if it rains. The stain is done and there's a coat of CPES over it to keep rain from leaching out and streaking it. After she's wet in, we'll apply 12 coats of
varnish over it, above the waterline.
Here are a couple of shots:

The boys have been busy with the house. It will be done natural with
varnish.

We've also been working inside and in the
bilge, detailing it out.

Aft under the
cockpit (there's a bit of cleanup and detail there yet to do since Twan got a bit carried away with the
paint....
We'll swap out the thru hulls and install new packing before she goes in the
water next Friday for an over the weekend soak. We also have to strip the floors and apply the
teak and holly ply so there's much yet to do.
