Dueling Dhows

DUELING DHOWS -- After months, nay, years of sitting around the yard, the Dyer Dhows are finally getting the attention they deserve. I acquired the Dhows over the last couple of years, and now between customer projects, the time has come to get these dinghies ready for some summer fun! This project will include new brightwork, hull repairs, paint, and a centerboard trunk for one of the boats - with sailing rigs for both dinghies, one requires the addition of a centerboard trunk.

Varnish Work cont...

May 4, 2018

Continued varnish work for the evening. This would be the fourth coat of Epifanes clear varnish on the skegs and DB trunk supports for both Dhows, and the fourth coat for the blue Dhow's middle and forward seating.

I began with a sanding with 220-grit paper. i then vacuumed, and solvent-wiped the various brightwork pieces.
