Varnishing and Tech Support





Yesterday we put another coat of epoxy on the interiors of the hatch covers and touched up the boat some more. About 1/2 hour of work. Also we unpacked Rick's new computer and tried to connect the internet service.



Tonight we sanded the touched up spots, wiped the hull down with laquer thinner, and trimmed the glass of the hatch covers. As we were getting started, Jake the dog got dropped off for Rick to dogsit for the next few days.





Jake tries it out.




While waiting for the lacquer thinner to dry, I checked the phone line we tried to get the DSL on and found it was wired as a second line. Rewiring the line in the basement and about 1/2 an hour on the phone with sbc tech support got Rick online at home. Then we applied a coat of Interlux Schooner Varnish to the bottom of the hull. 2 hours of work on the boat.





Rick can check the blog at home.




Total Construction Time: 55.5 hours.

That Jake is one HANDSOME dog. The kayak isn't too shabby either!
