Trabajar en el barco - actualización

Working on the boat - an update. This is what the boat looked like 4 weeks ago:

Applying kevlar tape to the joints to add strength:

Rolling on epoxy:

Applying fairing compound mixed with silica:

Applying fairing compound mixed with phenolic micro-balloons:

The white part is the third layer of fairing compound, this one is mixed with glass bubbles:

And so, the work continues as we long to be in the water, and then to sail away.
