Repainting the deck

This was a long due work to be done. Might be just esthetics but it makes a lot of a difference to me.

It took a lot of time and sweat to sand away the old layers of paint. 
 
 





After the old paint was gone I have painted 2 layers of epoxy primer

...still drying

After 7 (winter) months out of the water the hull is still not ready for the epoxy treatment.

Humidity inside the fiberglass must be lower than 1% and at the moment there are some points at 3,4%. I hope May (and maybe June) will dry out that 3%.
