The varnish is coming along nicely

5 coats of varnish later! I've got to give the inner cockpit another couple of coats, then I can re-coat all the gloss and deck paint. The new hatches are nearly finished (A massive thanks to Harold for that!) and once they're done I can complete the runners and apply some varnish to them.

The last remaining "big job" is the bottom. It really is a most unpleasant job scraping off all that old antifouling paint, but I'm half way there with it now and soon I can glass round the keels and apply the new paint.

Hope you're enjoying the journey as much as I am!
