New varnish!

Cockpit coamings portside aft
Had to take a break for the last 3 weeks due to intensive varnishing work being done on the boat. Looks like new now! The guys did an amazing job and I'm really afraid of touching anything now, everything is shiny and glossy, from the cockpit coamings to the hand rails, toe rails and rub rails. Altogether 140ft of rails plus the cockpit and hatches, that had to be stripped, treated for spots, sanded, coated with 4 layers of varnish and 1 layer of gloss! I'm so glad I didn't have to do it myself. The good news is that in the foreseeable future this won't be necessary to be repeated, as the new coat material just needs a light sanding and 1 layer of re-apply every year. Kudos to the guys from dupeymarine.com for doing a great job!
