On Friday evening after work we managed to get a few
hours headstart sanding down the roof ready for paint. We had actually
started to think that a few days good weather would never arrive, and we were anxious
to get the painting started before the mass of flies started to arrive.
Saturday we completed the prep work and gave the roof a coat
of pink undercoat, it was one of the longest days we’d spent at the boat and every muscle was aching. Sunday
morning and still aching we took Charlie for his walk and got down to the boat as early as we could, yet another long day was spent giving the roof its first coat of the final colour. It turned out a bit patchy but I needn't have worried because after another coat
today it’s starting to look ok. I think another one or two coats should do the trick.
It's coming on a treat, when are you hoping to be done by?
