| Sorry for the delay in response but, the weather has been less than cooperative..here are a few pics prior to barrier coating. More of the pre-anti-fouling variety to come soon... here we have stripped the old planks and repaired, filled and refastened the old ones..  a detail of two different types of repairs..notuice the splines in the work worn joints...  a shot of the splines pre-repair, filling  dark but, this is the after the first coat of 4 pre-barrier-repair coatings with West G-Flex and Cabosil  The end result, after 4 coats of West and barrier on the bottom and to the water line only (not the keel) should give us a fairly well protected interior with greatly improved planking and the added advantage of a slightly wet and pickled interior from keel wicking and "incidental" seepage. We'll be bottom painting this weekend and hoping to get wet soon...the proof will be in the splash. |
