Grizz
This Thread is being inserted into the galactic electron stream mostly 'just because'. Just because it's April, it snowed last night, rained all weekend with a howling NE wind blowing the last maple leaf stragglers all the way from Canada, a wind that whipped gnarly 15-footers along the lakefront, quite impressive.
The 44° F within the Unheated portion of the Boat Yard the past 2 weeks was 'just sufficient' to roll on the final coat (of 5) of Interprotect 2k, culminating in a wet sand on Saturday, smooth as glass and ready to receive VC-17 and rehang.
The Iphone, that invaluable collector and keeper of everything, proved where last night's fatigue originated: 11 floors navigated Saturday and 'only' 8 yesterday, up-and-down the same ladder, 3+ miles walked Saturday to-and-from the only water source, 50% carrying 2 1-gallon jugs of water to facilitate the wet sand of the hull and rudder procedure. Ugh!
The additional 5 coats were rolled on (again) 'just because', just because the good folks at Finco shipped it last year with a factory standard gelcoat finish, which was probably 'good enough' as is, but now it's got a supplemental skin 'just because'.
And last (but not least), the pic is included 'cuz I like its composition, with light and the unusual shape centered, horizontal elements and shadows playing, from an elevated POV. Also 'just because'...
Happy Tax Day!
