Boat haulout
Chad spent the week in Port Townsend with out boat out of the water doing maintenance and painting the bottom. I spent most of the weekend up there too helping out with sanding the paint down to a smooth finish. Why? Because we bought Interlux Baltoplate Antifouling Racing Bottom Paint for "the serious racer" (as it says on the can). I sanded the keel with 220 grit sandpaper, then 400, then 600, then 1000 and finally with fine Bronze wool until I could see a reflection in the paint. We had Marcus, Dan and Nathan helping us out too and even Jamie spent a bit sanding too! Here's some pictures from the weekend:

Looks like good bonding time. Dad was joking you could see your reflection in it. Better make you go faster!
it was not a joke, you could in areas.
