Side projects

Guy is a miracle worker. We had bought a teak door back in fall for the Gypsy, but it was too heavy duty to be the door to the bathroom and too big to for the cabin. Guy took out the glass, cut it down 5 inches, picked up new glass, and reconstructed it to fit the Gypsy perfectly. So now the Gypsy has a teak cabin door!




Jacob ripped out the port bunk because of hull damage behind it, and the bunk was delaminated and the plywood was splintered. The picture of the huge gaping hole was what Jacob had to grind out to reach good glass for the repair. The former bunk was replaced with a smaller "book shelf." The hull in the foc'sle is being prepped for thermal paint to hopefully reduce condensation on the bunk.




The engine was given a second coat of paint, and then a spray of clear coat. The bilge/engine room was given a first coat of bilgecoat.
