Hi guys!

Over the last week, I think I've done more glorious glorious sanding than ever before! Yup, I'm still in the midst of fairing the hull. It's tedious work but at least I'll be done later this week. Or that is to say, I NEED to be done later this week. I'm fast running out of time before I need to be out of the shed. Still on my to-do list are: 

- Applying barrier coat (next weekend)
- Applying Coppercoat
- Faring the sides of the cabin top
- Laying up glass in the cockpit
- Fairing the cockpit
- Priming and painting the cabin top and cockpit
- Applying none-skid (KiwiGrip)

All of that needs to happen before October 1st. I'm a tiny bit stressed, to be honest! 

I've got a facetime call with Ava in 3 minutes to go over our new t-shirt designs. I think we'll be doing a poll on Facebook to get some feedback :) Oh and we've got some cool new stickers coming in too :D 

I hope all of you have had an awesome weekend!

I’m impressed with your progress and explanations of the process. Has Andy called you and offered to move you to his Boat Works? I’ll say what we are all thinking......we Love and miss you Ava!!!

You could use the Bosch Rolling Sander for the curve between the keel and the hull. I think you watch AVE and he did a BOLTR of it. If not, check out his YouTube channel.
