Sorry!

Hello 4 followers. Sorry to just stop with the updates. I meant to mention in May that we were full tilt boogie busy getting the boat ready to fish. The Gypsy made it to Alaska and successfully performed in the Southeast salmon fishery. I will put a few more posts of the "final product," even though, boats are always a work in progress.

Aluminum Hatch Combings, and Paint

The aluminum combings were completed rapidly and look great which makes me pleased I chose to go that route. As doing glass would have consumed much more time. As it turned out, from start to finish including welded brailer hooks was two and a half days. Gelcoat tomorrow.. Hopefully.

The Mist Gray is looking great 3 coats later, all thats left is the blue trim. Looks as close to a spray job as rolling and tipping will allow. We were planning on spraying but couldn't bother with taping off everything and halting back deck progress.
