Cutlass bearing, prop, epoxy and solar vent!

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

Third week-end at the boat, Ted did his magic and reinstalled the cutlass bearing (with 3 set screws!) and the prop.

Prop reinstalled

I also volunteered him to drill a 3 inch hole in the deck!!! (Too hard for me…) But here’s now a nice solar vent that will pull some moisture and hot air out of the boat year round :-)

While I went around the hull for a second time to fill in the little blister holes with epoxy.

Hey! We’re ready to paint!!!!
