Epoxy fairing of Bow Roller support: DIY Boat Refit progress 12

time7 mo agoview0 views

Using Phenolic Microballoons to fair the top of the new bow roller support. Visiting the boat after Storm Arwen for less than 24 hours to check for damage and make more progress on the bow roller despite cold weather.. We are refitting a 44 year old Rival 38 for a Sustainable Sailing retirement in a few years. Two years ago, when we bought Vida she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings. We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all electric (motor, cooking etc). Now that the inside is dry (thanks to new windows, new hatches and leak chasing) we are fitting her out for live-aboard world cruising.
