Paint Preparation

After applying the 3rd layer of EPIFANES Epoxy-HB-Coat some points of uneveness were still visible. I hope that the surface is ready for finish painting after re-filling and a last layer of PU primer.

Toe Rail

The toe rail is made of teak profile

 



First I built a drilling template with bores positioned in such a way that at no position a hole meets a bulkhead under deck.



Each toe rail I fastened by four 4 mm x 35 mm woodscrews from inside. To bend the toe rails bores above the deck-bores I used a tension belt.

Rudder Gudgeon

For a long time I was looking for suitable Gudgeons - unsuccessful. Now my patience was at an end. I took a piece of aluminum and built them myself within fife hours.

Portlights Mounted

I decided for Lewmar stainless steel portlights of size 1 (191 mm x 367 mm). Both aft portlights are of fixed, the fore portlights of opening type.
