Chesapeake 17 Hybrid Day 17

Cockpit coming is on, reinforced with fiberglass, the hatches are done when the drip edge dries.  I got some sanding done on the hull, tomorrow the deck gets sanded if the epoxy is dry, (I may need to put another coat on the coming and hatch edges.)  Early, early monday morning may see the first coat of Interlux, Schooner, marine varnish, I anticipate 7 coats with a wet sanding of 320 grit sand paper between each coat, so that step will be a week long!
Front hatch, this edge will be inside a minicell foam strip that's attached to the hatch cover making it waterproof.

Cockpit coming drying after a coat of epoxy, masking tape makes for easy cleanup in case of drips, there's always drips! :)

Same for the rear hatch.

Some sanding done on the hull, next will be 150 grit followed by 220 grit.


Done for the day!  :)
