Tuesday 2/9/10

The sun is shinning again but it is a little chilly here(43 degrees F) that's chilly in south Texas. I pulled the tarps back enough to sand more paint and fairing compound. The port side is now ready for a close examination to decide how much work needs to be done in order to make the hull water tight. Fairing compound was used heavily and the hull still was not fair at all, portions of the fiberglass cloth were not wet-out properly, and small impact damage areas need attention. I'm not sure if the proper fairing compound was used because it is cracking and falling off of the hull. It is either applied too thick (up to 3/16") or it is too brittle to bind with the fiberglass or epoxy.

Open mic night at The Bharmacy has been changed to Sunday night...see you there.
