Initial Hull and Keel condition





Getting the old paint off.

When new bottom paint had been applied in the past the straps had been allowed to push against the rubrail. Over time they crushed the hull/deck joint.

It took two people to lift the bucket full of old bottom paint.





Fair the gelcoat above the waterline and barrier coat the keel.
