the paint dry for two days different put

the hatch in so here's my neck tat this

side of the hole just a lot of damage a

lot of scrapes I had to put a patch here

already I'm gonna fare all this out sand

this stripe off take all these port

lights out and I'm gonna paint from here

down to the rub rail there's a little

bit of damage on the rub rail I'll fix

that before paint but that's my next

project I've got a couple days of dry

weather so I'll take advantage of it and

get a good jump on this hopefully next

week I'll have it all prepped and ready

and I can put paint on that's it the

weather holds

okay now that I've put my first scratch

coat of paint on this side need to let

this cure for about three four days

before I sanded I'll sand it all out and

put a much smoother top coat on so while

that's drying

and you have to flip the boat

to do this side paint this side I've got

a lot of repairs to do first the rub

rails got some damage in it especially

back here must've taken the impact I'm

thinking before we owned this because it

has some stress fractures in it and over

the years water's got in I just dug it

all out to dry it out in the Sun so I'm

gonna fill this with epoxy today to keep

the water from intruding any more into

it so I'll fear the epoxy into this then

once I flip it I'll be able to pull this

metal cap off and run a piece of glass

cloth over this whole thing so you can

see there's quite a stress crack coming

down this thing

I've already started a few patches on

this side which I'll fare in these are

some pieces that I've moved things

around this our steering system access

to get our strut through the hole and

I've added a piece of deck up here to

keep this sweep coming I just didn't

like how it kind of curved right here so

I changed the shape of the hole so I'll

stay on this out and share this all in I

did the same thing in the other side of

work pretty slick but I've probably got

20 feet of this stress fracture to deal

with right now

so I'll jump on that right now it's a

good nice sunny day winter's coming fast

so I want to get this sealed up before

the rain start hitting love to get this

side painted in the newport lights and

before winter we'll see how that goes

but I did my best keeps holding on I

have put tarps down and blankets to keep

most the dew off so I will be painting

today I have to paint we got a beautiful

so I hope the dew point rise about ten

o'clock wipe down the deck prep and

paint get that side painted again okay

if we sand it out

and I'm happy with

and smoothness of the whole so I'm

rolling a nice thin coat a bright side

I'm gonna put another this is the third

coat now

I'm gonna do this I just roll it on

believe it or not I don't whip it at all

I roll it and then after about a minute

I roll again and it tips it with a

roller it works and really a lot faster

than having somebody tipped with a brush

anyway rains coming in about two days so

I have to get this on and dry so I get

these port lights in

[Music]

[Music]

I'll just keep going so what do you

think of the new paint did you like that

green stripe I know yeah maybe we put a

different stripe on here I don't know

what do you think well think about that

okay but you like the white the cool not

yellow okay do you don't know what we

have to do now all right tomorrow

morning we flip the boat and I have to

do this to the other side of the boat

yep so so both sides of the white okay

[Music]

yeah I've spent the last two days

sanding the side I've taken this

beautiful decorative stripe and started

out sanded it out

got it nice and smooth all the port

lights are ready to go I'm about ready

for paint I still have a little bit left

right through here to sand out so I

sanded the whole boat with 120 grit and

I'm gonna sand one more time with 220

right before I paint but it's getting

there real close

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

but towels all over the gap over the

night keep it nice and dry keep the dew

off but here's something I didn't

anticipate mayflies look at these little

critters all over right before I'm gonna

paint I'm gonna have to get these guys

off and figure out a way to keep them

off how long I'll figure it out

got a nice day this is the fog rolls off

I'm gonna start painting

that's towel-dried everything I can and

I'll wait for the dew point to come up

so it feels like it's still getting wet

then we'll start rolling

look at this maze of lines

Oh almost took it

so we're painting everything above the

waterline just to get some coverage and

making it all somewhat one color are you

doing

gosh it's amazing what paint does huh

just the first panel of three

are you almost halfway

looking good it's looking good

I cannot believe this all these years of

owning this boat that stripe is finally

gone well we're not those people so glad

we watched the 1993 but obviously when

we haul out then we're gonna do another

full coat right right now we'll put the

ports in and then we'll put another coat

on yeah

next summer it's not that far away no we

got a lot of stuff to do before it but

this is a big thing because winters

almost here or it is here well think

about it we're going to a Halloween

party tonight and I'm painting in a

t-shirt this is awesome

well I'm in a sweatshirt so what does

that say that it's time to go into the

traffic

well hello darling

you are

it's not gonna be a four-hour a job but

this is it for today right 220 or is it

on that special stuff is it to 20 I

might go 320 all I need to do is stop it

and then put some solvent on it to just

kind of clean it up

oh you're not Oh could we don't have to

soften it

I really think you can sandal well it's

not like sanding it's a step

four or five hours of sunny

and then what and then I let it harden

for two days and we put in the forum

lights

so exciting so on the other side you

know what I'm really happy about is that

none of them leaked it's pretty amazing

it doesn't leak because it rains so hard

for what eight days yeah oh my god yeah

but those were like weren't they the

originals yeah they should have been

replaced by here's Barry

yeah probably Hey keep painting

this is progress

[Music]

okay so here's what I'm working on today

up and Emma stay true taking the two

poor lights out cuz I'm prepping for

paint under here so you can see I've

started to sand this green stripe off I

have that side to go I've already

prepped this other hull and I will be

hopefully have this finished today so I

can start painting tomorrow it's kind of

tricky working off of a dinghy but the

more I do now the less I have to do on

the hard later

so plus um the whole family is anxious

to get this green stripe off here

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Applause]
