    Seems to be progressing nicely.

    When you get a chance, I would be interested to know what paint system you are going to use, and how much it costs over there.

    For plastering and painting this boat, we use the AWLGRIP system.

    November, the air temperature does not allow you to work outside, so the yacht construction work is moved inside the yacht, the use of an electric heater allows you to get a comfortable temperature in the yacht for work. Work began on the interior decoration of the yacht, we published many photos of the yacht, you can now look at the yacht Lion 870 from the inside.
