Making Progress

Posted by AJ Miceli on April 15, 2013

It was 42 degrees and not raining on Sunday, so I got the boat washed and one half of the hull buffed (one half, because a hull has two sides, and a 27-foot boat is actually 54 linear feet).

Today is Monday, and it’s in the 60’s today.  I hope to get 2 hours of work in tonight after work!

Spring Prep Begins

Posted by AJ Miceli on April 6, 2013

Well, it was supposed to be 50 today, so I went down to touch up the bottom where the cover straps wore off the VC17 and to wash the hull.

I got the touch up finished (see below) then I connected the hoses to wash the hull.  No water yet!

Arrrgggh.  We’ll have to wait for the washing.   Oh, and it never got about 41 today.  More to come.
