Two further overlapping glass tapes were added over the fillets between the transom and hull sides. Blue peel ply was smoothed over the wet glass tapes. As this was my first-time using peel ply, I chose a location that is hidden inside the lockers.
Well, the jury is out.....peel ply is the way to go. For the little extra labor involved in applying, the results leave a very smooth clean finish that requires minimal sanding. Yes, minimal sanding, oh glorious sanding.....sorry I just had to quote Mads from "Sail Life" on You Tube.This guy is a very good DIY boat renovator, go back to his early Vlogs on You tube he is passionate and very clever, I picked up lots of great building tips from Mads, check it out click the link below.Sail Life - YouTube
And that’s the end of the Fifth month of construction.
Progress will slow for a few weeks due to other commitments, but I’ll be back with a-vengeance in the middle of July.
Cheers
