Back!

The past several months have been incredibly busy. To sum up progress, fiberglass work, wood work, and boat moving, and a sprinkling of sailing in between. 

Early this spring I got the chance to fix the delaminating cabin top and companionway step. I thought I was going to be a daunting task, it wasn't. It was messy though. 

The companionway step when I split the layers. A spongy mess. 

Here is what lays beneath the Cherubini's skin. Little pieces of 1/2" balsa. Lots of little pieces. I replaced the balsa with a solid piece of 1/2" marine grade plywood. I scored the backside to allow it to curve with the fiberglass. The only mistake I made was I didn't score the outside edges enough. The plywood lifetime on the edges. It took a lot of slanging to get the edges back tot he same level.

I couldn't get a picture of the plywood filler because I was sort of covered in epoxy. Lol. 

The decks got new interlude Interdeck nonskid to complete the process.
