Turning the hull

Two days in ourt cottage up North.  The garden needed quite some attention.

Luckily I was able to lightly sand (240 grit) the seats and coated the seats with two layers of  high-gloss PU varnish.

There was not sufficient (process) time left to add the final coat of satin PU varnish.

Despite that we turned the hull. Now I can go up North and sand, varnish and paint the outside of the hull without any help.  That last layer on the seats can be done in a later stage.

In between varnishing and mowing the lawn I made a dagger board case stopper out of scrap material.

It is a piece of red cedar for the dagger and mahogany as lid. Sculted and glued together.  Now some more sanding and thereafter the well known epoxy + PU treatment. Also have to add a knob of some kind to get it out.
