Almost done

with Sjogin’s refit. All painting above the waterline is done; finished the rub rail today. When the Yard does the bottom work she’ll be ready for another off-season. Still need to seal, fill and paint the rudder. It’s pretty beat up after 45 years of service.

Photos of the progress as well as other items follow:

Varnish done
House top, trim and house sides painted, hatch frame varnished.

Deck painted
Deck Painted with Kirby’s finest. There’s a greenish cast to everything due to the skyklights in the shed.
