- Mixed up three tablespoons of QuikFair
. Filled one winch base and the cover for the indent in the bridge deck only.
-
- Stripped all finish from both cockpit locker lids using a heat gun. Tops and sides took about 40 minutes each. The bottoms, with the transverse supports, took twice as long each.
-
- Next steps:
- Fill, sand, and paint indent cover and winch bases to determine how the finished project may look.
- Continue stripping all the wood from the cockpit: companionway threshold, stiles, and hatch, coamings, icebox hatch, aft lazarette hatch.
- Sand cockpit locker lids.
- TSP cabin aft interior bulkhead.
- Epoxy closed a hole in the starboard side of the cockpit.
- Paint cabin aft interior bulkhead, first coat with High Gloss White
?? Might be best to wait to see how the Brightside
looks in the cockpit.
-
- Remove the access plate in the cockpit floor and fill diamond pattern below access plate flange.
- Need to decide whether or not to remove the cockpit drains for this project.
- Need to decide whether or not to remove cabin top winches to refinish inside cabin there as well.
