Glassing the hull

Back to glassing again, this time it was the bottom of the boat to help protect it against general wear and tear. It's not pretty as I had to use about 6 strips of 75mm tape so some of the joins are a bit ragged and lumpy but it will be functional. Put a second coat of varnish on the thwart, seat ends and hangers and portage yoke. One more on each of those and they'll be done.

Things left to do:
  • Fit centre and bilge runners
  • Paint the exterior - undercoat and topcoat
  • Varnish exterior
  • Apply more coats of varnish to piece parts and interior
