Painting

A very kind break in the weather all be it a few days late enabled me to get some painting done.  The first area tackled was the fore deck.  

The original painting had gone beyond saving so it was a back to metal rubdown. The edges had previously been prepped when the blue spray was done.



Then a coat of primer.


This will do until I put the top grit coat on.

Today it was the turn of some extra blacking (tar based paint).  The side of the boat had become a little scabby with the work done with various painting jobs and the natural weathering that this coating suffers from.
