    Chipping away with the soft sand anti skit product. Very easy to work with and make small repairs. Here's how I did this part. Tape out and do radius corners. I found that it needs to be done in quadrants. Too much area to do at once. If mixed into paint then yup apply all at once. I used a...

    I did some non skid with the soft rubber medium today.Weather was tricky but I snuck by. Yapped with Mike, @ woodonglass about alot of approaches and suggestions. He always has great insights. Unlike zool who's busy tending his grapes. I have to say the soft rubber medium is a good for me. 1st...

    Went back out this morning to do some more paint. I am blown away by how smooth and bright the sheen is with just 1 coat. I have a 10x10x8 storage tent coming today. I'm going to put all the tools and supplies in there for the season to give me back all my interior/exterior boat space to work...

    Some times I say to myself ………..why am I doing this? Getting closer so I answered my own doubts. Cleaned up the second layer of 1700. I was surprised no one asked about over indulging with a 2nd layer. Lots of grinding and feathering. Looking forward to a primer coat. It should help show all the...

    Went back to filling small screw holes. sphelps told me awhile back to open up the holes with a counter sink bit to get to good glass. Absolutely wash each hole out with acetone for a good bond. I will sand and then probably see if I need to top coat again. Anyway their are enough gouges and...

    I ran the 1st layer of 1700 glass on deck last couple of days. Worked out pretty nice. Got the glass back to the transom area but want it to set before I step all over the place with the next finish glass cuts. Perfect weather.

    They were strategically placed after consumption. Def. empty. Ran the last of the foam and will clean up the deck AGAIN. Get ready for glass, glass, prime them move to enclosing the sole deck and cuddy with roof and sides. So moving along. Don't want to create a political...

    I have been working on the Admirals deck outside. it's going to be installed in sections. First area went down over the beat up concrete pads. Then had to do wider steps. I used the "box step" method instead of stringers. More wood and more time but the run/rise is the same formula. Plus it...

    Home from vaca. Highly recommend "lower County" North Cape May. beaches are clean and dogs allowed. For 2 blocks of beach maybe 8 people. Cross a road, walk thru the dunes then a beach with tide water all day long. !0 minutes from Cape May hustle bustle. Went to alot of boat docks to look at...

    Thanks Sam, You are spot on with that concept. Their are so many tricks to learn. :D I went back out this morning and did the cleansing. Getting ready to fair, fill, sand and glass. Since I got past the deck/gunnels/flush deck I don't really see the glassing of the deck being an issue. Other...
