Spring is here - Getting Ready for the Sun :-)

Well the warmer months are just around the corner, so Dione is currently on the hard - having her bottom done up, I had a small amount of osmosis so I decided to take those patches back to Gelcoat and treat them with an Epoxy 2 part shield thats the green you can see on the images.


After this I would have applied 2 Coats of SML Primer Shield and two coats of SML Antifoul.

I have also been working on the stress cracks on the GelCoat - lots of work to do here, and bad weather is not helping, but I have made a start, basically Dremel out the current gelcoat across the stress cracks - refill with RAL matched Gelcoat and sand - and repeat, I am convinced it will be a good finish - A good clean and some patients



This year we have also replaced the Stern waste water deck fitting, and removed and resealed the freshwater deck fittings at the bow, plus a few other small things - like replacing the transom shower housing, anyway - few more weeks now and I'll be back in the water.


In other news I have a new Logo, ready to use on all my socials etc :-)
