Getting closer!

There has been alot of work this month on Frolic. I am ready to Stain the boat. I have finished the varnish work on the interior that had no stain on it, the rib detail and interior lapstrake. I had sanded and tacked everything then taped in my previous post. I then sealed the area with CPES then 4 coats of Epifanes. Here are some pictures of the result. I believe it came out well. One surprise was when I applied the CPES to the wood, dark areas appeared. I can only think it is areas that had moisture get into the wood. When the inside was sanded you really did not notice it, but now as you can see there are dark areas. I guess I should have bleached the wood, maybe next time!






My goal is to Stain tonight then tomorrow, followed by 2 days of sealing. More to come.
