Lazerette needed cleaning and new paint. Cover has been redone and attaches via a hinge. You can also see the sculling oarlock post. Previous owner converted it to a fresh water fill for the tanks.
Starboard side behind nav station. The large square area appears to be from hitting a pier or a dock. Above it is a split that went through to the deck and was leaking. The crack has been ground out and almost complete. the larger area is being filled in with glass and epoxy.
Both areas are filled and need a final fairing before painting. Things are looking up!
Below, almost finished!
Sculling Oarlock - Hoping to restore this to its original condition. Dixie cup helps to give some scale to its size.
Not perfect but pretty good when I had an area nearly 1" deep to fill in and fair out.
Area outside the nav area repair that was initially covered with only bondo and was starting to separate from the hull. I ground down the area and started alternate layers of woven roving and glass cloth (8 layers to start with) to build area up. I am sure it will take some time to get completely fair before painting.
Partial repair to area on deck above the interior void. Filled with glass and epoxy.
Prior repair done to port side in main saloon.. ground out old glass and have reglassed along with finishing epoxy/filler. Ready for new paint soon.
Starboard area under berth with glass/epoxy filling the holes.
Same starboard area after filling holes and painting using Signature Finish 2 part paints. 3 quick coats covered all the dark colors.
Port & Starboard cockpit seats. Both had soft cores and were covered with some TreadMaster that I removed. Used a grinder to remove the old glass, resealed the wood and have begun to reglass the seats.
