Sjogin’s out for her annual refit. Nothing major this time except the need for a dutchman in the Port rub rail. It may be time for a new set as I assume they’re original. (45 years old) The topsides also need to be wooded as that hasn’t been for a dozen years or so. The jobs complement each other as I’m sure there will be dodgy bits behind the rails at the top of the sheer strake. Maybe this March when the Yard’s swapping A-Cats out of the shed. We’ll see.
Pics follow:
All of the chipped paint scraped off, sanded and primed. I’ll fair with WEST, then sand and prime again.
The rudder’s off for painting. I may strip it if I have time. Right.
Punky rail. I’ll fit a cedar dutchman and goop to get through the Winter.
More tomorrow.
