Re-building the Dewdrop

This is the story of the "Dewdrop" (previously "Kathleen-Charlotte"). She's a Wooden Silhouette MK II, designed by Robert Tucker and built by Hurley Yachts of Plymouth in 1960. She was literally saved from the bonfire November 2006 and was given to me as a project.

Undercoat




Two coats of International undercoat went on next. A bit of colour on there has already made a difference. I sanded in between coats with 120 grit wet and dry paper and gave attention where required.

Hi Jim,

Great work on your S11. I was wondering what filler you used when priming etc and also what grit of sand paper between coats of primer/

Thanks,

Neil
