I am now getting really annoyed with the weather! Every bit of time off I have it seems to rain.................I love summer don't you? Have a shed load of work to do to the 505 and have no shed to do it in! Very frustrating..............
Fenton Just to let you know someones watching! I've a keen interest in your work as I'm doing much the same on 7270 a parker Composite. Although not as bad as yours her old cover has kept her reasonably intact after 6/7 severn years of neglect with only localised 'rot' problems. I havent had to redeck her but the gunnels has to go. The Sapele deck was never going to be perfect so I sheathed it in Carbon after removing most of the veneer. She is in an oven of a boatshed now it's use as a Nightclub during Cowes Week has gone so I'm lucky in that respect. I'm now stiffening up the transom & aft tanks to take an aft mainsheet & I guess just for the fun of it. Anyway keep up the good work & I'll post some shots when poss. Regards Barry
