First epoxy coat

After some finishing touches with sandpaper I did the first layer op epoxy with "PolyPox Injecteer".

This is a kind of epoxy liquid that saturates the top layer of the wood.

Next step will be using epoxy filler to rectify dents and other mishaps.

With this first epoxy coat the boat start to look wooden.....

After filling and more sanding I want to apply at least two coats of epoxy.  The final paint coat for the outside will be done later. My present plan is to paint most of the outside white with maybe the sheerstrake in varnish.

First I will turn the boat again for finishing the inside. That means more cleaning and making the thwarts and side benches.

Still a lot of work to do.
