Heh! Indeed!  Sadly, it doesn't look like Tim will be getting to the really really good stuff until next Tuesday. Virtually eternity!  

BTW, does anyone have bronze cleats or lifeline hardware they'd really like to get rid of?  

[mbd]

Tim's web site has been down, but he's mercifully sent me some pictures!

[mbd]

...and another.

Thank goodness. Tim's site is back up! Non-skid goes on today or tomorrow!

The cockpit before non-skid...

Gosh...she looks...Virginal

Beautiful

How old did you say that boat was?

Mike
That new non skid isn't going to dry with all of us drooling on your new paint.

Congrats she looks great
Cheers,
Bill

Lookin' fine! Allow me to pull a Captain Obvious for a second as I'm sure it was mentioned somewhere before, but what paint/color did Tim use? Spray? Roll-Tip? You are giving me something to shoot for with those gorgeous pictures. Between you and Bill A-24 is certainly envious of her New England sisters, but now she knows what she could look like someday.

Tim's site referenced earlier as well has lots more details...

But wait, I have MORE pics! This just in...

[mbd]

I don't know how I'm supposed to work these days!

[frank durant]

Stop it !!!!!!!   now BOTH hands are up !!!!!:D

And the second coat of non-skid goes on, then the tape comes off...

[mbd]

Hatches, windows and hardware next. Sure wish I had nice bronze stuff worthy of this deck job...  One step at a time.

Mike (and anyone with a factory in-board)

are those big round cutouts in the lazarette bulkhead original?
