After the bottom dries up time to start filling the many screw holes.
After filling up all the holes time for sand it smooth and get ready for the paint.
Putting up a 26 foot boat usually takes 3 quart cans of putty.
I start off with an 80 grit sand paper and putty one most time to take out all the little imperfections.
The wood is so pretty I hate to paint it even on the bottom.
Getting ready for paint, taping off the waterline so it doesn’t get on the planks that would be stained and varnished.
What a beautiful color the only brochures I found Of the Gage Hacker have a dark royal blue bottom.

Looking good! The hard work is paying off.
It’s definitely starting to shape up.
